I actually learned something new about America. Did you know that the first settlers didn't even settle at the first land? They had to travel up and down the east coast to find good land. And two people died on the trip over, but one baby was born.
This blog used to be about hosting foreign exchange students, and then it was about my experiences in the classroom substituting, and then it was about my month trip to Mexico (July 20-Aug 20, 2008), and now it is about subbing again! I will have stories.

The second baby was born dead on the Mayflower; she was the daughter of Mary Allerton, whose father was also on the trip: Isaac Allerton. They left England via Holland for religious freedom.
You are a direct descendant of his and of another Pilgrim, Richard Warren.
That same year, in November, another ancestor, Robert Cushman, arrived on the Fortune from England.
This is how your ancestors settled this country; you are 13th generation American
