As I described in 'Susanna Foster's Primer'. how I 'synchrondipitously' found my ancestors Reliance Hopkins and David Crosby; Steven Hopkins descendants 'buried in my back yard'; Steven Hopkins came over to the USA in 1620 and helped write 'The Mayflower Compact' which became the basis of America's Constitution. The Mayflower landed at Plymouth Rock, which became Plymouth, Massachusetts.
Today, I visited Plymouth, Devon United Kingdom to the very 'steps' where Steven and the rest of the 101 passengers left for their new 'mysterious' home in America four hundred and eleven years ago.
It was an odd feeling; like visiting an old home with Steven by my side, bringing to an end (?) a three hundred ninety one year journey
