Biography

Alice was a Pilgrim on the Mayflower and was wife of colonist William Mullins and mother of colonist Priscilla Mullins.

This is Alice, the wife of William Mullins. Alice was born towards the end of the 1500's. Alice married William Mullins, date and place of marriage are uncertain, between 1595 and 1600 (estimated) in the area of Dorking, Surrey, England She was probably the mother of all his children: William, Sarah Mullins Bluden, Joseph, and Priscilla Mullins Alden. She died during the winter of 1621 in the general sickness on the Mayflower. There is a memorial for her at Coles Hill Burial Ground, Plymouth, Plymouth County Massachusetts, USA. Note: A photo of the memorial may be found at findagrave as cited in the sources.

Williams Mullins' will was made on or about April 1, 1621. His wife Alice is mentioned in the will, so it may be assumed that she was still living at that time.^[1]

Although it is possible that Alice is the mother of William's children, this has not been confirmed by any documentation.^[2] The General Society of Mayflower Descendants states that Alice has no known descendants and as such it is not possible to join the Society under her name. ^[3]

Her maiden name is unknown.^[4] Some WikiTree contributers believe that it was Atwood. No reliable sources have been cited to support the Atwood surname. Other very reliable sources claim that this surname is based on an error.^[5]
