Though the crew of the Mayflower certainly made significant sacrifices in completing the journey, the Mayflower Society recognizes only those passengers who stayed to form Plymouth Colony. The crew returned to England in the spring of 1621 so no members are listed above and descent from a crew member does not qualify one for membership.

Mayflower Genealogies at FamilySearch

This collection of records is created from two data sources. The first source is the 30-volume publication Mayflower Families through Five Generations: Descendants of the Pilgrims Who Landed at Plymouth, Massachusetts, December 1620, known as the Silver Books. The second source is the documented applications for membership in The Mayflower Society, submitted from 1896 to early 2019. The data was merged to create a single representation for each Pilgrim and their descendants for the time period of the late 1500s to 1910. These lineages descend from the 26 couples that survived the first winter.
