My ancestors settled in eleven colonies, two territories, and four states - that's taking places in chronological order. I can toss in three extra places, as well. Those will be explained later.
I'll take places in order: colony, then territory, then state.
First up, PLYMOUTH COLONY.
Founded 1620; 1st family arrived 1620
With the arrival of the Pilgrims in 1620, the first of the family arrived in the name of William Brewster. Thomas Prence arrived the following year. Arthur Howland Sr. was in the colony by 1640. Arthur Howland Jr. remained a resident of the colony until Plymouth joined Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1691. Plymouth families would move to Massachusetts and Rhode Island.
