I am interested in finding the archives belonging to the D& H Railroad
which I believe was operating in Granville in the early 1900's. Would
anyone know where I can start looking ?
This railroad was bought out by Canadian Pacific some time ago.

I've had a few emails asking whether or not descendants of the crew members can be counted among "Mayflower descendants" for membership in the society. Good question!
I went right to the expert - Bette Bradway, Historian General, and the answer is no. Our ancestors boarded the Mayflower for the express purpose of leaving their homeland, settling a new country and starting new lives. The crew members did not plan to emigrate, they signed on to the Mayflower and it was just another job to them.

Dear Christie,
Please take a deep breath, and understand that you (and the alligator)
are both correct, but talking about two very different women named
Rebecca Bangs who happen to be 3 generations apart. Both are daughters
of Edward Bangs, but one is the immigrant, and the other his grandson.
If not an apology, you at least owe some kind words of misunderstanding
regarding your analysis of the Message posted to MA-BAY-COLONY :-).

GREAT NEWS!
Volunteers have stepped forward and offered to begin preliminary work in forming a Henry Samson Society. Stacy Wood, Governor of the Pennsylvania Society will get things started with the assistance of Caroline Kardell, past Historian General.
Please contact Stacy at swood@sail1620.org and let him know if you are interested in joining the society once it is up and running.

OK, since this is in my tree, too, I'll weight in.
Rebecca Bangs died after July 9, 1665 (Barbara Lambert Merrick (compiled
by), "William Brewster of the Mayflower," General Society of Mayflower
Descendants, Revised 3rd edition 2000, p. 28.)
She was married to Jonathan Sparrow and had six children (same source).
The Rebecca Bangs Lucy cites below was BORN (according to her sources) Oct,

are not the same woman.

I'm sure that anyone who decided to stay as a settler, would today be
classified as a "Mayflower ancestor".

Janet -
As Mac pointed out, many are online, but many others have been published,
in full or in abstract, and I have access to most of those. Whose wills,
and in which years and places did they die?

Dear Rootsfolks,
I just came across a situation where I had to find the date which
corresponds to "the Thursday before 28 November 1801." So of course, I used
my favorite calendar website http://calendarhome.com/tyc/original.html which
allows you to convert/lookup, etc., every date, time, event, or change you
can think of.
Then it occurred to me (sometimes that happens, so please be kind!) that it
might be useful to others. So here it is. By the way, 28 November 1801 was
a Saturday, so Thursday was the

Then he would have left the crew and become a settler. He would no longer
be considered crew.

Some time ago we had a discussion going regarding the children of Nathan Kenney & Mercy Smith5 (Bethiah4 Snow, Stephen3, Constance2 Hopkins, Stephen1).
According to MF 6:255 (3rd ed.), only one child, John, has been proven, the others have all had question marks. As a state Historian, I have tried unsuccessfully in recent years to have these other children recognized - until now.
I recently sent a proposal to the Historian General, Bette Bradway, including copies of several printed sources, by top geneal

Hi here is a link to my web page where I detail the facts that show Mary and
Patience are indeed children of Elizabeth Soule. I believe the facts are
conclusive and that Mary and Patience should never have been removed from the
ancestors of George Soule.
