Guide Picks - Mayflower Genealogies on CD-ROM |
 |
|
|
For the estimated 30 million people descended from the Pilgrims who came
to America on the Mayflower in 1620, these four CDs are invaluable
resources. |
|
1)
The Mayflower Descendant
Over 43 volumes of original pilgrim records were transcribed by
genealogist George Ernest Bowman, founder of the Massachusetts Society of
Mayflower Descendants, and reprinted in the The Mayflower Descendant
magazine (1899-1937). This wonderful material is
now available on CD, fully-indexed and searchable with over 8000 original
images from the The Mayflower Descendant.

published by Genealogical Publishing Company: Genealogies of
Mayflower Families, Volumes I-III and Mayflower Source Records.

death, cemetery inscriptions and probate which refer to over 111,000
Mayflower passengers and their descendants.
