Carol, we have a very active Mayflower list at Rootsweb. I'd post this there as well.

I just started to research the Latimers for a friend. I am looking for the parentage of Samuel B. Latimer (c.1802-1863). Online submissions say it's Samuel Latimer (b. 1767 in Lyme) and Elizabeth Chapel. Samuel 1767 is the s/o Nathan L. and Jean Lee. This Latimer line eventually goes back to Elder Wm Brewster of the Mayflower via Elizabeth Dymond, Elizabeth Bradley, Elizabeth Brewster, Jonathan Brewster to Wm. I have Samuel B's DC, no parents given. I have tried the Barbour Collection of CT Vital Records and CT Church Record Collection at the CT State Lib, not found. I looked quickly at their probate records also but will try those again. I am wondering if any of you have any information that might help me or could make suggestions? Since I am a CT resident, I can easily travel around the state. I am looking for some kind of documentation linking Samuel B to his parents for the Mayflower Society. Many thanks, ~Carol Bauby Harwinton, CT
