Biographical Summary
Priscilla Mullins was born probably in
Dorking, Surrey, England, to William and Alice Mullins. She, her
parents, and her brother Joseph all came on the Mayflower to
Plymouth in 1620. Her entire family, herself excepted, died the
first winter. She was shortly thereafter, in 1622 or 1623, married
to John Alden, the Mayflower's cooper, who had decided to remain
at Plymouth rather than return to England with the ship. John and
Priscilla lived in Plymouth until the late 1630s, when they helped found
the neighboring town of Duxbury.
John and Priscilla would go on to have
ten or eleven children, and have an enormous number of descendants,
including poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Presidents John Adams and
John Quincy Adams, and Vice President Dan Quayle.
