| Notes |
- Mayflower - Pilgrim
Surprisingly little is known about John Tilley. He was born in 1571 at H e nlow, Co. Bedford, England, and his brother Edward Tilley and wife Agn e s (along with their niece and nephew Humility Cooper and Henry Samson ) al so came on the Mayflower. Brother Edward is known to have lived in L eiden , but there is no record of John Tilley there (though it is certain ly pos sible he was present there and just didn't get named in any record ). Joh n and Joan Tilley came on the Mayflower with their youngest child , Elizab eth, then about thirteen years old. Both John Tilley and wife Jo an died t he first winter at Plymouth, but their daughter Elizabeth survi ved and la ter married fellow Mayflower passenger John Howland.
