255 Year Old Dunham Line Discovered<\/h2>\n\n\n

<\/i>With amazement I saw a name, and then another – it was the name of his father and that of his mother<\/blockquote><\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

With that line, my three-year search to connect the Dunham family name to a Mayflower Pilgrim was practically over – nothing was left but to submit my documents to the Mayflower Society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This blog is a part of my Mayflower Ancestry genealogical website. \u00a0I have placed some information into this blog<\/strong> to “wet the whistle” of any would-be genealogist out there who may be trying to either find a Dunham \/ Mayflower connection or to connect with those would might be related to you. \u00a0My four years of research, consisting of over 2 years of 6-10 hour research days may be reflective of what you are “in for” should you be attempting a Mayflower ancestry certification – however, mileage may vary as you may have information from parents, grandparents, etc. \u00a0I had very little to go on other than a handful of names and the vague ideas from my mother that we had a possible Mayflower history. \u00a0There are many who say “yeah, we’re all descendants”, well that’s not true, and unless you are certified, you can’t claim to be a descendant with certainty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The most often asked question I receive is, “can I access your Mayflower Certified Dunham Ancestry tree?”, unfortunately I will have to say “no” and recommend that you wholeheartedly research your own ancestry – it’s well worth it!!!<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
