Hubbard Mayflower Ancestors - Chilton/Winslow

Posted   With 2 comments 

This is a quick place holder for a blog post that I will flesh out in the next few weeks with more details. Hubbard cousins, you are probably not a blood relative of Mary Chilton, but you are probably related to her husband, John Winslow. This means that John's brothers Edward and Gilbert Winslow, who both came on the Mayflower, are your great uncles. (8th great if you are in my generation.)

What is my certainty level? I'd say 4 out of 5, where 1 is "No way" and 5 is "very likely."

We have Ancestry DNA links via the "thrulines" feature up to John Thacher (1703-1787) and Content Norton (1713-1773). Is this proof that we are related? No. It is more of a pointer. You might say we are definitely related to other people who all think they are related to John and Content.

We also have good research at least partway up the line through the writings of our great great grandfather, Robert Parks, husband of Lucy Brookins, who wrote some family histories in his book, cowritten with Hyland Paul: History of Wells, Vermont, for the First Century After Its Settlement.

From John Thacher back, the line is reasonably well documented in published family histories.
