<sigh> I have Mayflower ancestors .... I have Mayos on my maternal side that descend from the infamous Thomasine/Tamsen/Tomzin Lumpkin/Constable/Davy/Savage and Eldridges on my paternal side that descend from her sister Anne. I have at least five generations who all came from Mt Desert Island ME it seemed all of them married their cousins or their brothers' widowed wives or their sisters' bereft husbands ... and sometimes they married two different cousins who had the same name!!! and were born within a few years of each other .... sometimes I think there were only a dozen or so "approved" first names in early Massachusetts, so every researcher since has had to be supercareful to make sure they are talking about the correct "John" or "Hannah" for there might also be two or three of them in the same family - children who died young, then a succeeding child was given the same name ... or the researchers were NOT careful .... and they all seem to have had at least ten children .... my main lines are MAYO, LORD, TORRENCE/TORRANCE, EATON, SMITH, SNOW, HIGGINS, BASSETT, GOODRICH, BARTLETT, SHELDON, KNOWLES, HOPKINS and on my father's side ELDRIDGE, KEENY, GROVE, UPDEGRAFT lots more questions, roadblocks, and stonewalls on that side - plus they moved around a good deal and stayed with relatives .... I'm also starting to research my husband's LEGGETT name with links to CULLEN and PICKETT in Pennsylvania - the Johnsons are recent immigrants from Sweden and Norway so that will wait until I really have time to go over and look in person list - oh my am I on lists: Ohio, Columbiana Co. OH, Missouri, Schuyler Co. MO, Maine, Hancock Co. ME, Pennsylvania, Cumberland Co. PA, York Co. PA, Indiana, plus about every surname I above - plus THE-ROAD ... I hit up the genforums regularly and set up a Yahoo Club site for the Eldridges and another one just for the links that wouldn't fit on the Eldridge site (Yahoo limits you to 100) with that kind of ancestry you are probably ALL my cousins - so give yourselves a great big hug from me Candy
