Along the way we established linkage to the Mayflower. Pat self-published a book "Ancestral Profiles for Bunker-Dunning and Antecedent Family Lines". All the copies were distributed so there are no more available, but Pat graciously allowed me to take the book to SLC where it was scanned during a RootsTech convention. (I tried accessing it online yesterday but was not successful. I have an inquiry in, because that was the purpose of its scanning in the first place.) Some of the copies went to libraries. One chapter is entitled "Mayflower Lines" and I'll give you some of the names that MAY OR MAY NOT help you in reaching Mayflower ancestors. Deacon Samuel Bass 1) & Ann Savill 1). About 1630 Samuel immigrated as first of the surname Bass in New England. He's first recorded in 1632 as of Roxbury MA. John Bass 2) md 1st Ruth Alden 2) of Mayflower descent. John b c1630 England, d 1716 Braintree MA; Ruth Aledn b c1634/5 dau of John Alden 1) and Priscilla Mullins.

Irene Thayer 7) md Nahum BUNKER 6) Irene, dtr of Deliverance7)/Nathaniel 6) is the source of our family's link to the Mayflower. The line for Nahum Bunker 6) is Silas5 md Hannah BERRY; Silas4 md Mary FOSS & Widow SMITH; Benjamin3 md Abigail; James2 md Ann THOMAS, James1 md Sarah NUTE. If you can connect to any of the above, you should be able to link to the Mayflower. Summary of Mayflower Line names: Bunker, Savil, Bass, Thayer, Arnold, Elizabeth Dunning md Nathaniel E. Bunker (after Nahum) and, of course, Alden. I hope this helps someone down the line.
