Sounds as if you are in for a wonderful trip. Have you read the book by D.
Kenelm Winslow, "Mayflower Heritage?" I found this book in an antique shop
along with two others "Diary of Anna Green Winslow - A boston School Girl of
1771" edited by Alice Morse Earle and "The Master of the Mayflower" by Henry
Justin Smith. I have enjoyed all three books. You might enjoy these also.
Enjoy your trip!!
Linda

knowing that my 8 x great grandmother and grandfathe, Kenelm & Elinor
Winslow lived in the town. Elinor is buried in the Winslow Cemetery. We
visited Plymouth many times.

so hyped over the years but the true story is much more exciting.

cousins I found on the web, in Boston. We will travel to Pittstown, NY to
view the Gibbs cemetery where our 3 x great grandparents are buried. I will
take them to Marshfield, Plymouth and Swansea, Ma.
