John -- Your Ezekiel Delano (b. 1731) is in generation #6 of the verified lineage of Myles Standish for which I paid my $5. (He does appear in Generation #5 on the verified lineages I have from Mayflower passengers Samson and Alden.) One of the sources cited for him (and others) on those verified lineages from the GSMD is the "Delano Gen." -- cited in that way. Are you aware that the original 1899 Delano genealogy (or GHAAHD) is being updated by Muriel Curtis Cushing, bringing the various lines shown in that original book down to the present day, providing primary sources wherever possible? Perhaps someone has already contributed information to her, with more primary sources as documentation, that will aid you in proving your Mayflower lines. (If not, perhaps you can help her in compiling the update by contributing any primary source information you have discovered for your more recent Delano ancestors.) Muriel's email address is flash1620@comcast.net. Good luck.
