I'm related to John Howland too! D
I'd have to check with my sister to find out the exact lineage, but she told me we're related to "the guy who fell off the Mayflower." Lol

It is reported that currently there are over 10 million living descendants of the 51 Mayflower Pilgrims who had children. Importsmasher we are not alone, with John Howland there are at least 2 million of us !

You are correct John Howland was the fellow that fell overboard but was lucky and lived. I guess if he had drowned we wouldn't be here.

Haven't done the dna test yet, but my great grandmother traced our family tree. Been years since i've seen the book myself, but I remember it saying I was related to the last surviving passenger of the mayflower. Which would be https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Allerton . From the size of her family it sounds pretty possible.
