*Sarah was the daughter of Mayflower passenger, Richard Warren
The Mayflower sailed from Plymouth, England on September 6th, 1620 with 102 passengers and a crew of 30. "Land ahoy!" was first shouted on November 9th. For freedom of their religion, they were willing to endure hardships that we cannot even imagine. Thus, this small group of "rebels", who felt so strongly in their convictions that nothing would stand in their way, formed the beginning of the country we call home. I am directly descended, on both sides of my family, from 4 Mayflower passengers; Francis Cooke, John Cooke, George Soule and Richard Warren.
