Who Were the Passengers of the Mayflower?

MCGS September 11 General Meeting with Karen Fortin

 


We’ve all heard the story of the Mayflower and the founding of Plymouth Colony in 1620 but who were these intrepid souls, what did they believe, why did they come to New England, and who left descendants? This presentation explores these topics and provides information on resources available for learning more about our Pilgrim ancestors.

Use this information to find out how many of us are related.

Karen worked for many years as a librarian before becoming interested in genealogy. Karen’s lectures help individual understand the historical context in which their ancestors lived.



Meeting registration will close on September 8. Meeting link and handout will be emailed to registrants on Saturday September 10
