A lineage or hereditary society is a member-based group that is organized around a common ancestor or ancestors of historical importance. For example, the General Society of Mayflower Descendants is comprised of members who can trace their lineage to one of the original passengers from the Mayflower. These societies aim to preserve the memory of their common ancestry, participate in historic conservation and education, and may provide original scholarship or a specialized facility to aid family historians.
This special commemorative issue of American Ancestors magazine focuses on the history, relevance, and impact of the Mayflower and its passengers. Drawing from our extensive staff expertise, as well as from partner organizations and outside authors, this issue is our second definitive guide to the 2020 anniversary. Tours, events, resources, and organizations from the United States, Wampanoag Nation, United Kingdom, and the Netherlands are represented.
