My husband's and my family were both in the Boston area in the 1630's, and I have been trying to find out if we are related in a very distant way. I have not yet found that connection. But in the process, I found that Richard Warren, one of the Mayflower pilgrims, is my 11th great grandfather. I found that I also have connections to Myles Standish, and John Alden (although not direct, they are through a couple of great-aunts)!
