Mayflower Ancestors (34)
Uncovering our connections to the Mayflower ancestors has been a journey of profound significance. This exploration into our family's past has not only linked us to a crucial chapter in American history but has also provided a deeper understanding of our roots and heritage. The realization that our lineage traces back to those early settlers who braved the unknown for a chance at religious freedom and a new life is both humbling and inspiring. It's a reminder of the resilience and courage that run in our family's veins, traits passed down through generations. This collection of research is more than a compilation of names and dates; it's a tribute to the enduring spirit of our ancestors, whose decisions and sacrifices have shaped the course of our family's story. Their legacy is a cherished part of our identity, offering a sense of belonging and continuity that enriches our understanding of who we are and where we come from.
Great Migration (119)
The "Great Migration," as defined by the New England Historic Genealogical Society (NEHGS), encompasses the English Puritan migration to New England from 1620 to 1640. This movement primarily involved English Puritans who relocated in family units, driven by a quest for religious freedom and the aspiration to establish a Puritan commonwealth. These migrants originated from various regions of England and settled in areas that now form Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Maine, including the Plymouth Colony and the Massachusetts Bay Colony.
An individual's inclusion in the Great Migration Study Project requires evidence of migration to New England within the specified period of 1620 to 1640. The project's objective is to compile biographical and genealogical profiles of all immigrants who arrived in New England during these two decades. The NEHGS has produced extensive volumes and directories, providing details about the lives of these immigrants. This collection presents research on many ancestors who were part of this significant historical migration.
You may be shocked by how many there are. Even I was at first. However, most of these Great Migration ancestors are my 9th and 10th great-grandparents, and in some cases 11th and 12th, and with the number of great-grandparents doubling with each generation, the possibilities quickly become immense. We have a total of 1024 sets of 9th great-grandparents and 2048 sets of 10th great-grandparents. This makes finding so many Great Migration ancestors more understandable.
