SUMMARY:CALEB JOHNSON—THE MAYFLOWER AND HER PASSENGERS
DESCRIPTION:When the Mayflower embarked on her famous voyage to America in 1620\, she was carrying 102 passengers. To most\, they are simply known as “the Pilgrims.” Perhaps the name of Governor William Bradford\, Elder William Brewster\, or Captain Myles Standish are vaguely familiar; but the vast majority of the Mayflower passengers have remained anonymous and nameless. Mayflower historian Caleb Johnson has attempted to resurrect the unique individuality of each passenger by providing short biographies for each person or family group.
