That explains why so many of our ancestors moved away so quickly.

I agree totally. Success is not necessarily measured by power or wealth, and failure is not the lack of power or wealth. Very well put. Thank you, Cyndi

I'm crushed. I wonder if Howe is expressing a ***minority opinion? Well, Ed, here's my opinion. What Howe says I think is true in its way. Plymouth Colony was always a poor colony whose poor soil and modest harbors offered no foundation for economic growth. It was soon hemmed in by better financed, more aggressive colonies with better harbors and better access to the interior, and it finally faded away as an independent colony after only about seven decades. So if success is measured by material wealth and the power to impose one's will on others Plymouth Colony was a failure. William Bradford wrote that before the people who were to become those Plymouth colonists we think of as the Pilgrims left England for Holland they, "saw the evil of these things in these parts, ...and as the Lord's free people joined themselves (by a covenant of the Lord) into a church estate, in the fellowship of the gospel, to walk in all His ways made known, or to be made known unto them, according to their best endeavors, whatsoever it should cost them, the Lord assisting them. And that it cost them something this ensuing history will declare." (p. 9) Bradford's history of Plymouth Colony is in part a history of misadventures, of betrayals, and if you will of failures. It is a history of costs. But more than that it is a history of people who kept their faith and were sustained. Early in the history Bradford recounts an event which might be considered a pattern for the events which follow. The men of the congregation had been separated from the women and children.. The men were on the ship which was to take them all to Holland. While they were preparing to leave "the master espied a great company, both horse and foot, with bills and guns and other weapons, for the country was raised to take them." The master, "Swore his country's oath_sacremente_, ..weighed his anchor, hoised sails, and away," leaving the women and children behind. The men were soon caught in a fierce storm, the mariners themselves often despairing of life, and once with shrieks and cries gave over all, as if the ship had been foundered in the sea and they sinking without recovery. But when man's hope and help wholly failed, the Lord's power and mercy appeared in their recovery; for the ship rose again...And if modesty would suffer me, I might declare with what fervent prayers they cried unto the Lord in this great distress...even without any great distraction. When the water ran into their mouths and ears and the mariners cried out, 'We sink, we sink!' they cried (if not with miraculous, yet with a great height or degree of divine faith), 'Yet Lord Thou canst save! Yet Lord Thou canst save!' ...Upon which the ship did not only recover, but shortly after the violence of the storm began to abate, and the Lord filled their afflicted minds with such comforts as everyone cannot understand. (13) Again and again in the history Bradford recounts occasions upon which the colony faces disaster, often brought on through the perfidy of people they counted upon as friends. And again and again they turn to their faith and they are sustained. At one point they lose their patent--the legal foundation of their right to colonize--and Bradford writes that this is, "A right emblem...of the uncertain things of this world, that when men have toiled themselves for them, they vanish into smoke." (35) No, the Plymouth Colony did not "flourish." It did not enjoy material prosperity or political or military power. But Bradford wrote, "What could now sustain them but the Spirit of God and His grace? May not and ought not the children of these fathers rightly say:'Our fathers were Englishmen which came over this great ocean, and were ready to perish in this wilderness; but they cried unto the Lord, and he heard their voice and looked on their adversity." (63) As an old man Bradford was grieved to see the people of Plymouth turning more and more to "the uncertain things of this world." But his words have survived as a testament to a people who left behind their goods, their homes, their friends, and often their families, trusting not in their own strength, but in something larger than themselves, and living not for themselves, but for something greater. It seems to me that people who do not share the particular faith of the Pilgrims can appreciate what they did, and it seems to me that in the light of what they did, the fact that they did not "flourish" doesn't matter very much. citations from William Bradford's _Of Plymouth Plantation_, ed. Samuel Eliot Morison, in the Modern Library edition of 1967 published by Randonm House of New York

Actually, none of my ancestors moved away until WW I when my grandfather was drafted and sent to France. They stayed put in what they must have considered a very good environment on Cape Cod from 1639-1918. It was the depression of the 30's that had many of them selling land and looking elsewhere for work. Even then, after careers were finished, they all retired back to the Cape. -----Original Message----- From: Art4161@aol.com [mailto:Art4161@aol.com] Sent: Sunday, November 03, 2002 1:44 PM To: MAYFLOWER-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [MFLR] Plymouth Colony "did not greatly flourish" That explains why so many of our ancestors moved away so quickly.

While scanning "The Puritan Republic of The Massachusetts Bay" by Daniel Wait Howe (Cornell On-Line Books), I was surprised to read on page 4 that the Plymouth colony "did not greatly flourish. Eleven years after it was founded it had only about 500 population, and it never became an important factor in American colonial history.) On the eve of our annual First Thanksgiving celebration, this is an awful revelation to digest. I'm crushed. I wonder if Howe is expressing a minority opinion?

Karen and Mayflower Folks, I'm a little confused, to say the least. I recently started maintaining the database for the descendants of Elizabeth Alden for the Alden Kindred, and I'm surprised to find that this information is on the Alden Kindred's website. I can only guess that this was left over from an earlier version of our database and has not been updated. Gilbert Manchester, s/o William Manchester and Rebecca Cook, b. 9 April 1745 at Tiverton, RI, m. Mercy Durfee. They are the parents of Eliphal and James. Sources are: Alden C. and Rita C. Manchester, "The Manchester Family of Rhode Island," NEHGR: 102:14, 102:24. Almon E. Daniel and Maclean W. McLean, "William Gifford of Sandwich, Mass.," NEHGR: 137:152. I also have Mary Tompkins, d/o Micah, married to Gilbert Manchester of Westport. So the information presently on the Alden website is incorrect and will be updated soon.

I have a likely but hard to prove recently discovered line to John and Priscilla through the Coe line. I went to the Alden site and found this: 76. Mary Tompkins (Micah Tompkins , Sarah Coe , Sarah ) was born on 14 Apr 1763 in Little Compton, Newport, Rhode Island, United States. Mary married Gilbert Manchester son of William Manchester and Rebeckah Cook on 26 Mar 1782 in Little Compton, Newport, Rhode Island, USA. Gilbert was born on 9 Apr 1745 in Tiverton, Newport, Rhode Island, United States. They had the following children: +266FiEliphal Manchester was born on 13 Dec 1768.  267MiiJames Manchester was born on 6 Jun 1781 in Tiverton, Newport, Rhode Island, United States. I know this must be a mistake because if Mary was born in 1763 she would have been only five years old when she gave birth to Eliphal. When I went to Little Compton today, I was given a photocopy of this page: This certifies that Gilbert Manchester of Westport son of Thomas Manchester and Mary Tompkins of Little Compton daughter of Michel Tompkins were lawfully joined together in marriage on the fifth day of March in 1789. Witness Enos Gifford Justice of Peace. Little Compton Families has Mary and Gilbert being married on March 26, 1782. I believe 1789 is correct. LCF also has Michel listed as Micah Tompkins, son of Samuel Tompkins and Sarah Coe, thus the Alden connection. I am working on absolute proof, but it is 99% likely that Gilbert Manchester and Mary Tompkins are the parents of my GGG-grandmother Rhoda Manchester who married Epapahroditus Lavare and later James Clarke. Rhoda was born in December, 1800, which is why I believe the 1789 year is correct. Rhoda's death certificate states her parents are Gilbert Manchester and Mary (unknown), both of Little Compton. There is a will of Mary Tompkins' brother David that mentions both Rhoda Lavare Clark and her son Arnold Lavare but does not give a relationship. Rhoda would be David's niece if this can be proven.

That volume is in three parts - three individual books covering different branches of the Doty family. "MF 11:1" refers to volume 11, part 1 - the families of Edward^2 and John^2 Doty. MF volumes (or as many call them, "Silver Books," from the color of the bindings) are in many large libraries, though it may be difficult to get one through interlibrary loan since they are normally found in non-circulating reference sections.

It isn't clear what the question is, but if it's whether there is a connection between Robert Carr who immigrated on the "Elizabeth & Ann" and the Robert Carr of Newport, then the answer is Yes--they were the same. Note that the "Elizabeth & Ann" came in 1635, not 1621-1623. Robert was a passenger on that ship (age 21 at the time), but where he first settled is unknown. He was in Portsmouth in 1638 and Newport in 1639 and owned land (according to his will) in Jamestown. A biographical sketch for Robert Carr can be found in "The Great Migration, Immigrants to New England, 1634-1635; Anderson, Sanborn & Sanborn; NEHGS, 2001.
