Hi!
I have just received the latest issue of the Mayflower Quarterly published by the Mayflower Society. One section is "Notes & Queries." People are asking information on specific ancestors. These do not necessary look like Mayflower ancestors. I would think that perhaps a query on the second wife of Hezekiah Bonaham could be put in here. The name, address, and telephone number of the person looking for the info is included.
Yes, it is a shot in the dark, but it might also bear fruit. Might find even some Bonham descendents with more info. There is no charge for queries, but everything is to be stated in a clear and concise manner. The circulation of MQ is approx. 25,000. A subscription to MQ for non-members is $10 for one year inside the US.
The person to contact to put in a query is:
Alice C. Teal, Editor
The Mayflower Quarterly
224 North Shore Rd.
Marmora, NJ 08223-1545
Fax (609) 390-2743
mayflowereditor@worldnet.att.net
I also understand that the Mayflower Society has quite a research library where people can do their own research. There is also in this issue, a list of new additions to the library. However, it is located in Plymouth, MA.
This particular issue contains an article on Eward Fuller, but I don't see anything that is not in the book. Also has an article on Samuel Fuller, his physician brother. His will mentions Edward's son Samuel. Calls him "Cozen" (i.e. nephew).
It also talks about the Plymouth Colony Court Records being reissued which provide a rich and fascinating picture of early days in the colony. Volume III of the records covers the years 1651-61. The Fullers are mentioned several times - Edward, Samuel, and Edward Fuller's other son, Matthew, who was not on the Mayflower but came later.
"In June 1655 came a curious report: Samuel Fuller was awarded a pair of leather breeches valued at 20 shillings, 'left behind" by William Pittman, who had stolen a "steel mill" from Fuller.
Blessings,
Rev. Nina Russell
