#PINTA SANTA MARIA MAYFLOWER FULL#
The Mayflower made only one full trip to America. How Many Trips Did the Mayflower Make to America? Mayflower CrewĪlthough not usually included on Mayflower passenger lists, the Mayflower also carried around 30 crew members, led by Captain Christopher Jones.Īlthough the Mayflower sailors can be classified as Mayflower crew, these individuals are typically labeled as passengers because of their contractual obligation to stay in the colony for a year. Once the contract ended, the sailors could return home, although all the surviving Mayflower sailors chose to stay. The Mayflower sailors were those who were contracted by the London Merchant Adventurers company to help establish the colony for one year.

You bring us the beginning of football season, bonfires, and nights spent looking at the stars. Pulling out my jeans is the highlight of your month, fall fashion begins to take over and the holidays just roll in after you. Your month inspires people to close doors or chapters in their life in order to blossom in the spring. You are one of the prettiest months, next to October. When you finally start to cool off and change the leaves from green to gold, I couldn't be happier. However, on the flip side, I couldn't be more in love with you. There is a WHOLE thirty days between your first day and October's first day, I shouldn't be seeing back to school supplies next to Halloween candy. You can't pick a temperature but you want to make me excited for the fall season to come? That's not how it works! And now you try to make us excited with the thought of Halloween creeping slowly closer.
Pumpkin spiced everything and plaid everywhere? NO! I'm still enjoying sunglasses and ice cream. You kick start the holiday season way too early. This was what came to be known as the "first Thanksgiving". Although they didn't have much, they were thankful about their survival and the help of Squanto. This day was to give thanks to God for everything that they had. There was no pumpkin pie or wonderful desserts that we share with our families on this day. There was no turkey, as is customary today, but instead, deer was on the menu. The governor invited their Native American allies and they all shared a three day festival. He was their guide and translator.Īfter their first successful harvest, the governor of their colony decided that a feast was necessary. He taught them to hunt, fish, and harvest. When Squanto met the colonists, they were malnourished and barely surviving. He was saved and returned to his homeland 2 years later.
After he came home, he was again abducted and taken to Spain where he was to be sold into slavery once more.
He escaped to London and found his way home on an exploratory expedition. He had been kidnapped by an English sea captain and sold into slavery in England. Squanto was a member of the Patuxet tribe. Although his background was something that I was never taught. I learned in school that Squanto was very friendly and helped the colonists, which is true.
