Welcome to the
Massachusetts Society of Mayflower Descendants !

 

We have several events every year and welcome your attendance at each and every one. We invite you to bring along friends, relatives, and neighbors who might like to join our Society.

To those reading this for the first time, please take a moment to browse our website to learn more about us. You will find information on how to join and the benefits all under the "membership" menu or quick links to the right. Your membership helps us to preserve the memory of our Pilgrim ancestors and to sponsor this growing website to help others learn about the Mayflower and how to conduct their research.

For those already members, please consider having your parents, grandparents, children, and grandchildren become members. Many members are descended from more than one Pilgrim ancestor. We encourage you to document these additional lines so we may better understand the full complexity of the Pilgrim progeny. You can do this through supplemental applications. Our entire staff is ready to assist you to complete these applications. Thank you for visiting our website. Please email or call us if you need any further assistance!
