Change Date: 19 May 2009
Note: Birth, Marriage and Death info from Mayflower Families Volume 11 (Edward Doty) Part 1. They have the date of death as 1800 with a source of Morse Genealogy, P. 48. But Gershom's information on page 48 has no date of death. So I'm using Before 1800.
Remainder of line to Mayflower passenger Edward Doty goes:
Joshua MORSE (~1675 - 1754) + Elizabeth DOTY (1675 - 1698) John DOTY (~1640 - 1701) + Elizabeth COOKE (1648 - 1692) Edward DOTY (~1595 - 1655) + Faith CLARKE (~1619 - 1675)
Also, Elizabeth COOKE's line to Mayflower passengers Francis COOKE and Stephen HOPKINS goes:
Jacob COOKE (son of Francis) + Damaris HOPKINS (daughter of Stephen).
