Many's the time I've been mistaken
And many times confused
Yes, and I've often felt forsaken
And certainly misused
Oh, but I'm all right, I'm all right
I'm just weary to my bones
Still, you don't expect to be
Bright and bon vivant
So far away from home, so far away from home
And I don't know a soul who's not been battered
I don't have a friend who feels at ease
I don't know a dream that's not been shattered
or driven to its knees
but it's all right, it's all right
for we lived so well so long
Still, when I think of the
road we're traveling on
I wonder what's gone wrong
I can't help it, I wonder what's gone wrong
And I dreamed I was dying
I dreamed that my soul rose unexpectedly
And looking back down at me
Smiled reassuringly
And I dreamed I was flying
And high up above my eyes could clearly see
The Statue of Liberty
Sailing away to sea
And I dreamed I was flying
We come on the ship they call the Mayflower
We come on the ship that sailed the moon
We come in the age's most uncertain hours
and sing an American tune
Oh, and it's alright, it's all right, it's all right
You can't be forever blessed
Still, tomorrow's going to be another working day
And I'm trying to get some rest
That's all I'm trying to get some rest
Do you ever think about what's gone wrong?
...
wow

What is it with you European Americans? One lady was bragging her?
fore fathers came over on the mayflower. They were the first ones to come to America.
Big deal I told her mine was here to welcome them.
What is it with you European Americans? One lady was bragging her?
When America was "founded" it really wasn't lost. The TRUE Americans were the various American Indian tribes who already inhabited the land and even showed the settlers how to live off it. In essence it's just another false claim in this country's tainted history.

Martin family history?
I'm trying to research if i'm related to the Sussana (North) Martin that was involved with the Salem Witch Trials. Interesting stuff...She was married to George, son of Christopher Martin and Marie Prower. Needing help finding out who's Christophers Father. I can find out that Christopher wasn't a very nice man, and that he was in charge of getting supplies for a trip on the Mayflower. My paternal line is Dean - Frank - Charles - Asa - Sylvester - Seth - Seth - Ephriam. Also could use help finding more on that line too. Most of my family was from Grafton, NH and Rehopboth/Swansea Mass.

What were the names (first and last) of the first pilgrims who came from England?
When did they arrive? Who was the captain of the group? Who was the pastor? When was the first Magna Carta written? What is the Magna Carta? How is it different from the Mayflower Compact? What food did the first pilgrims like to eat? What food did they have when they arrived at Plymouth Rock? Why didn't they travel further south? Where can I find a really informative book on the pilgrims?

WHY is it that the US thinks that it is the most powerful/wonderful nation on the face of the earth?
As someome who was born here in the US (actually my genes go back itteally to the Mayflower), Why should we feel superioer to all others in the world? Does this sounf like Germany 1938?
WHY is it that the US thinks that it is the most powerful/wonderful nation on the face of the earth?
Well, we are the world's superpower both militarily and economically, but we should use that power responsibly instead of arrogantly, otherwise we will lose it. That is why the British empire fell, because it overstepped its bounds.
Reply:You both need some more koolaid Report It
Reply:Because we are an arrogant, selfish, crude, cruel %26amp; power-hungry nation.
It is very unfortunate the US will happily help foreigners, yet the residents who live here have a very hard time getting some form of temporary help from the government.
Reply:I don't feel it is a matter of feeling superior to all others in the world. The fact that we enjoy many freedoms that others do not. Gives us a different out look. Our form of government, gives anyone born here the opportunity to advance to the office of the Presidency. It also protects the person that wants to stand on the corner and decry that very form of government. With out fear of disappearing, never to be heard from again. We can travel from one end of our country to another. Without needing travel documents. We as Americans know we have rights. Know that our fore fathers, fought and died for them. We know that we live in a land of laws. That we had a hand in creating and can change. I have traveled all over the world and have seen first hand. How other countries treat their subjects. I am always happiest when I return home.
Reply:Well, that's really two questions--
a) as to being themost powerful: we have the biggest economy and the most guns. That, as they say, is that.
b) being the best is another matter--and its a sbjective matter. America is my home and as far as I'm concerned, its the best place on earth.
BUT--where I part dcompany absoluutely withthe nationalists is this: I do not feel any need to make derogatory remarks about other countries. Those people have different ways ofdoing things-and they love their homes jsut as we in America love ours. We can criticize things their governments do wrong--but that is not the same as running down their culture. And--we aren't perfect either, muh as I wish we were.
People who feel the need to be "superior" to others only demonstrate that they are inferior.

Reply:Because in America freedom is important - even if we have to fight for it; some may try to trample it from time to time, but it is the strength of spirit in the American people that make this country a wonderful country.

We are the direct opposite of Germany 1938. Why do you think we have an immigration problem? People want to come here - but they don't want to leave.

Illegal immigration?
where did our forefathers from the mayflower get their legal immigration visas?
Illegal immigration?
My foregathers weren't on the mayflower. In all likihood, yours weren't either. The survival rates of early colonies were apallingly low.
In any case, the early English colonists reached an accomodation with the dominant political power in the region, the Iroquois Confederation, known as the Covenant Chain that lasted, nearly, to the time of the American Revolution.

The Constitution of the United States was proposed September 17, 1787, and officially began operating (as a government) March 4, 1789.
The Constitution of the US was ratified by 9 states. New Hampshire was the ninth State to ratify. The date of its action was June 21, 1788. Virginia and New York ratified the Constitution a few days later, and before the date fixed for commencing the operations of the government. For the first time, there was such a thing as CITIZENSHIP of the United States. That citizenship did not extend to North Carolina until January 28, 1790, or to Rhode Island until June 1, 1790, for those States delayed their ratification until after the operations of the government had begun.
Reply:Visa wasn't even a word then....... LOL!!!!!!! Get a clue scrooge....
Reply:At the time of the pilgrims there were NO Immigration laws in place. Therefore no visa'a were required. there also was no country established so they were considered more of Pioneers than immagrants.
This differs very much from todays immagrants as the country and laws are established. Therefore immagrants today without proper process are considered ILLEGAL and should return to where they came. Proper documented immagrants are welcome to stay and become a vivrant part of this great nation.
Hope that answers your question.
Reply:You need to ask them that question. Things have changed a very great deal, haven't they.
Today, you get their immigration papers from the U.S. Government. I would point out that there are a number of countries where they need people very badly and you may want to immigration there yourself. Libya, for example, would more than welcome you if you would go there.
Reply:they just made them up, back then it was okay.
Reply:Well I heard they tried to get visas but there was no Central Government to apply to so they assumed that it was OK.
You know, they just figured if anyone cared they would at least make laws or post a notice or something.
Reply:There were no laws at the time, actually they received permission from the King of England, who had laid claim to New England.
As for my grandparents, they had legal entry visas before they even got on the boat to come over.
Reply:It's a dog eat dog world. Yes there was no **** like computers and such. But Everyone knew and understood what could and would happen to the week.

So even though they fought as best as possible, all through out that time, they understood what would happen if they lost against other invaders.(also know as the white man).
Our forefathers did not need immigration visas because we were the stronger of the ??? forces, nations, peoples??? and were able to get control of this land, that at the time was thought to be new land so to speak..and the Indian was unable to hold onto it.

Reply:There were no laws back then to warrant Visas. They were fleeing persecution and sought freedom. So, technically would they not have been refugees anyway?
Reply:I don't think they existed back then.
Lawless and unexplored at the time, I think.
Actually, I think immigration has been taking place since before recorded history. It would seem most likely.
I'm sure the natives at the time weren't the first to come to the land now known as The United States.

Reply:Didn't you hear? God promised them that land. So immigration was ok. And Biblical style genocide was practically mandatory.
Reply:Did the Native Indians get theirs also?
Reply:People without valid arguments for illegal immigration always want to dwell in the past. The problems we have are in the present and they must be dealt with in the present.
Reply:There were no laws back then to warrant Visas. They were fleeing persecution and sought freedom. So, technically would they not have been refugees anyway?
Reply:I don't think they existed back then.
Lawless and unexplored at the time, I think.
Actually, I think immigration has been taking place since before recorded history. It would seem most likely.
I'm sure the natives at the time weren't the first to come to the land now known as The United States.

Soon thereafter, the Speedwell crew reported that their ship was taking in water, so both were diverted to Dartmouth, Devon. There it was inspected for leaks and sealed, but a second attempt to depart also failed, bringing them only so far as Plymouth, Devon.

What kind of anmials did the Pilgrims bring on the Mayflower I need more than 2.
What kind of animals did they bring?
the only animals known with certainty to have come on the Mayflower were two dogs, an English mastiff and an English spaniel, who are mentioned on a couple of occasions in the Pilgrims' journals.
it seems likely that they had with them some chickens, because chicken broth was given by Mayflower passenger Edward Winslow to the Wampanoag sachem Massasoit when he was sick in early 1622; and it is also likely they brought some pigs, and perhaps even a few goats. In 1623, Emmanual Altham visited Plymouth and reported there were six goats, fifty pigs, and many chickens.

Hey Here are the answers.
1. The natural resources of the New England Colonies included fish, whales, trees and furs.The natural resources of the Southern Colonies included rich farm land, forests and fish. Middle colonies: Cattle, grain, fish, lumber and iron. There was also fur, whales and oil.
2.The Mayflower Compact was important because it allowed the Pilgrims to freely commit as equals to their new society and Jesus Christ, and provided just and equal laws that could be built on, agreed to and enforced. The Mayflower Compact is an important document as proof that when men join together for the good of all and commit themselves to a lasting covenant, far reaching goals can be attained.
3. The purpose of the Navigation Acts was to strengthen England and make it richer. These laws were that only ships built in England or the colonies could carry goods to and from the colonies. The other law was that any ship carrying European goods to America, first had to stop in England.
4. A right to be assumed innocent until proven guilty
A right against unreasonable searches of person
and place of residence
A right against arrest without probable cause
A right against unreasonable seizures of personal
property
A right against self-incrimination
A right to fair questioning by the police
A right to protection from physical harm
throughout the justice process
A right to an attorney
A right to trial by jury
A right to know the charges
A right to cross-examine prosecution witnesses
A right to speak and present witnesses
A right not to be tried twice for the same crime
A right against cruel or unusual punishment
A right to due process
A right to a speedy trial
A right against excessive bail
A right against excessive fines
A right to be treated the same as others,
regardless of race, sex, religious preference, and
other personal attributes
5. The Bill of Rights states what the government cannot do and assert the rights given to the people and which no law or government action can interfere.
6. The three-fifths rule was the result of a compromise proposed by Northern abolitionists.Slaves didn't vote, of course. But the Constitution mandated that slaves be considered three-fifths of a person, giving a great deal of power to slaves owners and slave states.

What Strange Aberrational Idea Of History Did You Have As A Child?
Don't ask me why, but as a child I always believed that the Pilgrims' ship (the Mayflower) was some sort of cruise ship. Maybe I was sleeping during class but I truly believed the Pilgrims sailed from Europe to Plymouth rock on a ship the size of the Queen Mary 2. Moreover, I pictured the first Thanksgiving as this catered in-door resort banquet with sumptuous turkey, stuffing, gravy, cranberry sauce, sweet potatoes and plenty of pumpkin pie.
What weird idea of history did you have as a child?
What Strange Aberrational Idea Of History Did You Have As A Child?
This was my daughter's history aberration. She must have been about 5 or 6 years old, and influenced by a room in our house where many family photos, some 100 years old, are hung. We noticed that she'd talk about the people in the pictures as being in "the black and white days". I told her that my great-grandmother (in a picture) looked like my sister. "But Aunt Janie is in color," she commented. I thought that sounded odd. When her grandparents came to visit, she asked them about something when they were in the black and white days. It hit me that she really thought that people were in black and white back then. I told her that people had color back then, only the cameras couldn't make color. She got really upset -- blinking and trembling. It was like I had told her the world was only in her imagination.

What's the name of the store that won't decorate for Christmas until after Thanksgiving?
I seen it on the news the other day, this one particular department store refuses to rush the Christmas season. They have signs up throughout the store that say stuff like "Santa didn't come on the Mayflower" and "Let's talk turkey first, then we'll talk about Christmas." They want to celebrate the holidays in their proper order. I think it's great! What do you all think about it, and does anyone know what the name of it is and where it's at?

Genealogist conderrick each other? also advice here?
Another question with genealogy. When I was in high school I lived with a genealogist. She helped take care of me. Anyways, I really didn't pay much attention but she told my dad's side, the last name, she traced them to them Mayflower. That were relatives. I never asked any questions or got paperwork but it explained what my grandfather said to me. Anyways I moved after high school and she moved to another state. We lost contact.
Another one of my releatives either got paper work from the archives or had a genealogist do the tree.
Anyways the results say two different things. I'm having my relative send me the copies.
I think I already found the error but I'm waiting for the copies of the papers to be sent. My relatives paper list the wrong Charles and that is not my gg grandmothers name. Also the newpaper article which has been passed down the famliy conderdicks this too.
Also is this normal for genealogist to conerdick each other?
Genealogist conderrick each other? also advice here?
Yes, it is common for genealogists to have different information. Sometimes it is caused by misinterpreting information, and sometimes it is because one researcher doesn't have the sources another researcher has.
The best thing to do is to verify the sources of all information. As you say, you think you've found the error. When you correct it, be sure to cite sources to back up your correction. Know that primary sources (such as deeds and marriage licenses) are superior to newspaper articles or what someone remembers what someone else said.
Reply:Conflicting results is almost standard in genealogy. When it is glaring, it is easily seen. The problem can be when people don't SEE or realize the issue, and just accept someone else's work, without verifying it. Sadly, this is even more common with the internet, when people are just THRILLED TO see someone else has "done" the work, copy a whole database, then pass it to the next person.
Many people are insulted, if you question the source of their conclusion. Good researchers are happy to say what record they used to "prove" the research. Different types of sources vary in how reliable they are. A court document is more likely accurate than a biography, for instance. Or, someone takes the easy route (like a published book), and makes no effort to see if the book is accurate. In early days, it was more common to use the same name in a family, and have 3 or 4 Charles.. and it can be hard to sort which one belongs to the record. Even well known genealogists can be lazy or wrong, as I learned on one of my lines. And she was a professional.
It really taught me a lot to see the contradiction, and work it through.
The other frequent pitfall is new researchers, who take family tradition as gospel. Many researchers are more concerned with finding a prestigious line, than being accurate. And very insulted if you see the mistake.
Anytime someone asks you "what is your source for that?", be happy, not insulted. Comparing notes (especially in disputed conclusions) is a great check and balance.
Reply:CONTRADICT. IT'S CONTRADICT! Lots of luck fixing 500 years of conflicting genealogy. Again, it's C-O-N-T-R-A-D-I-C-T.
