I have become truly lost in the history of the Pilgrims (not given this name until a very late and passing reference in William Bradford’s Of Plymouth Plantation, 1620-1647.) The Old Comers and many who followed were Separatists from the Church of England. She was the oldest survivor of the passengers on the Mayflower, who became known as the Old Comers. Many of you know I am writing a historical novel called The Last Pilgrim, about the life of Mary Allerton Cushman. ![]() Today, Noelle shares interesting facts about Mary Allerton Cushman. I’m happy to welcome author Noelle Granger to the Power of 10 series. ![]()
