There is a brief, and probably not exactly up-to-date list on this list's FAQ.

At the bottom of Rich Craig's message (and EVERY message that appears on this list - many thanks Craig, for doing that!) is the web page address for the General Society of Mayflower Descendants. Go there and check "Books and More." The full and current list of "Silver Books" (correctly titled "Mayflower Families") and the "MFIPs" ("Mayflower Families in Progress," the 4+ generation pamphlets) can be found there, with the prices and ordering information. "MF 2" (Silver book #2), as well as "MF 1" are both completely obsolete, the families having now been expanded and republished with new volume numbers. The current "MF3" (Soule) will also be obsolete as soon as the new research is completed on that family and it is published in hard-cover. In the meantime, there are the Soule "MFIPs" which contain up-dated information on the family. I might also mention, for those of you who are not members of the "Mayflower Society," that subscriptions to "The Mayflower Quarterly" (free to members) are also available to NON-members at the miniscule price of $10.00 a year for US mailing. This publication contains (in addition to reports, a sales page and other Society business) many articles on Pilgrim History and genealogical articles, many of which pick up specific family lines of descent at Generation 5/6 and carry that SPECIFIC family line for a number of generations further. These articles can be especially helpful when the descendants have moved away from the Plymouth area into other areas, where records may not be easily available. (I'm thinking particularly of NY State, but there are other areas that can be equally difficult!) If you are interested in subscribing, make your check to "GSMD" and send it, with your request for a subscription to the Quarterly, to General Society of Mayflower Descendants, PO Box 3297 Plymouth MA 02361-3297. (ALL mail to GSMD, for any purpose, goes to that PO Box; it is sorted in the office.) Bette Bradway (again)
