My sister works for the Air Force as a contracting officer.... She recently met another co-worker and was completely shocked when she said, "I am a pilgrim, and my ancestor fell off the boat" John Howland is our ancestor. BLESSED

John Howland is my 13th great grandfather, this is amazing to watch, thank you. I have a geneva Bible that was handed down from 1604 where their names are signed as well their children. It has an inscription that says "follow God all the days of thy life". John had posed it down shortly before he passed away.

Great stuff here. I am teaching my kids Pilgrim history and John & Elizabeth are their 11th great grandparents on my wife's side. Having an ancestry connection to this great American story really makes it more personal and interesting for them. If America has an original First Family or royal couple, it is the Howlands for sure.

Doing some ancestry I discovered that I’m a descendant of John Howland on my maternal grandfathers side. His name was Joseph Baxter. Johns oldest daughter Desire married a Gorham then they had a daughter named Temperance and she married a Baxter and then it was Baxter all the way until my mother’s maiden name.

Hello. I’m also related to both Brewsters and Howlands. Brewsters my 11th great grands. It is hard to imagine “locked” below deck in the dark for the entire trip across the Atlantic. Sometimes candles lit in a wooden ship?? What could possibly go wrong? Unsanitary conditions, likely sickness passed around. Any fickle fate event and one or several of them had passed away earlier, millions of us today would be not. They were way braver than I.
