Who Is this Pilgrim at Plimoth?


This photo shows a Pilgrim man dressed in authentic perod clothing of the time. The photo was taken at today's Plimoth Plantation- it does not say who the person is being portrayed- could it be Capt. Miles Standish? Isaac Allerton? Eduoad Bompasse?. Let your imagination be your guide!
There are many more names to choose from:
John Cooke
William Brewster
John Adams
Stephen Hopkins
Richard Warren
William Bradford
and many more
Do you see a realtive here?
For a great interactive link about the first Thanksgiving scroll down to the Plimoth in the fall post!

  1. I wonder who it is, too. It looks like they get things totally authentic, down to the guns and shoes, even!

  3. My Dad and I have been doing a little geneology research and believe we may be descendents of William Brewster. We're still piecing the puzzle together!
