The Society has elected fourteen hundred and five (1405) members; there have been 187 deaths; and 147 names have been dropped from the roll. There have been 291 resignations in the twenty years of the Society's existence, but many of these members had previously joined newly formed State Societies. The net membership of the Massachusetts Societv on i March, 1916, is 783. Every one of the 49 Mayflower Passengers from whom descent can be proved is represented in the membership of the Society, and its 1,405 members have filed 2,778 lines of Mayflower descent, one member having proved 35 different lines, from 10 Mayflower families. In October, 1896, the Massachusetts Society leased an office in the Tre- mont Building, Boston, and remained there nearly seven and one-half years. In February, 1904, it removed to much larger and pleasanter rooms, at 53 Mt. Vernon St., Boston, which it still occupies. The Massachusetts Society began, with the January, 1899, issue, the pub- lication of "The Mayflower Descendant, A Quarterly Magazine of Pilgrim Genealogy and History," which quickly became the recognized authority in its special field; and in March, 1913, began the publication of a second periodical, "Pilgrim Notes and Queries," issued eight months in the year. Further infor- mation about these periodicals, and other Society publications, will be found on pages 10 and 11. At the Fifth Annual Meeting of the Massachusetts Society, on 21 Novem- ber, 1900, at the suggestion of its Secretary, it was voted to begin preparations for publishing in 1920, in commemoration of the Pilgrim Tercentenary, a series of memorial volumes of Pilgrim genealogy and historj^ This series it was later decided to name "The Mayflower Genealogies." This date, 21 November, 1900, just twenty years before the Three Hun- dredth Anniversary of the Signing of The Compact, is the earliest date known to the Society on which any organization of any kind passed a formal vote to begin preparations for the Pilgrim Tercentenary. A notice of this vote will be found in the January, 1901, issue of "The Mayflower Descendant." [Vol. Ill, P- 57-] OFFICERS FROM DATE OF ORGANIZATION GOVERNORS Gamaliel Bradford, 1896-1900 Charles A.

Baker LIBRARY AND CABINET Library The Society's Library now contains about fourteen hundred and fifty (1,450) volumes of genealogical and historical works, which the members may consult at the Society's Rooms. Nearly all of these books have been received as gifts, or in exchange for the Society's own publications. Gifts of cash for the purchase of additional books, for the rebinding of the many books now in poor condition, and for the purchase of additional book- cases, are greatly needed. Gifts of genealogies and town histories, or of any books relating to the Pilgrims and their descendants, are solicited. Duplicates of books already on our shelves will be gladly received, as they can be exchanged for books we could not otherwise secure.

This collection now includes about 1,000 original documents, such as wills, deeds, diaries, family records, etc., many of them dated before 1750; also many photographs of original documents, bible records, gravestones, etc. Of especial interest may be mentioned: A copy of Thomas Cartwright's "A Confutation of the Rhemists," printed at Leyden, Holland, by Elder William Brewster, in 1618. A copy of David Calderwood's " Perth Assembly," printed at Leyden, Holland, by Elder William Brewster, in 1619.

"The Mayflower Genealogies." in which it is planned to include, as far as possible, all proved descendants of the Mayflower Passengers. Lack of funds has made progress very slow; but numerous important dis- coveries have been made, which have opened up hitherto unknown lines of descent from Mayflower Passengers; and a large number of false claims of .Mayflower descent have been exposed. Of the hundreds of claims of descent appxned b\ the Massachusetts So- ciety, in the past twenty years, only about onc-twcnticth {^q) of one per cent have later been found incorrect, and the correction, in every case, has been the result of the Society's researches. The system developed by the Editor for collecting, recording and indexing the data for "The Mayflower Genealogies" saves a great amount of unneces- sary duplication of effort and consequent waste of money. Some idea of the great saving resulting from the compilation of the gene- alogies of all of the twenty-two .Mayflower families under one control, mav be gained from the statement that any one attempting to compile a genealogy of all descendants of Myles Standish, for instance, must include in the work a large fraction of the descendants of John .Alden and many descendants of P'dward Doty. There are at least seventy other instances of children and grandchildren of the Mayflower Passengers marrying; and the unions in later generations are very numerous. If. therefore, twenty-two different persons undertook to collect the descendants of the Mayflower Passengers, each person working independentU on a different Mayflower family, the waste of time and money, not to mention the wear and tear on the old records, would be enormous. Liberal cash gifts to pay the expense of future researches are greatly needed. Remittances should be made payable to the Society; and communica- tions about the wf)rk should be addressed to the Editor. 12 GENEALOGICAL RESEARCH For some years a large proportion of the expense of the Massachusetts Society's research work has been defrayed by fees for genealogical investiga- tions made in behalf of members and non-members. Every such investigation adds valuable material to the Society's collection of data for "The Mayflow^er Genealogies," and the person who pays for a search has the advantage not only of the Society's unequalled accumulation of material (much of which has been card indexed), but also of the Editor's familiarity with the records and the families of the Old Colony territory. All fees for investigations are added to the Massachusetts Society's Colo- nial Research Account, and are used exclusively in extending its work of iden- tifying the descendants, in all lines, both male and female, of all the Mayflower Passengers. Unrestricted gifts of money for research work are especially needed ; but gifts, or payments, to be used in solving specific problems, or in copying for publication interesting wills and inventories, conveyances of land, etc., relating to the ancestors of the person supplying the money, will be of much assistance The Society already owns thousands of abstracts of wills ; deeds ; court records; town records of births, marriages and deaths; church records of bap- tisms, marriages and deaths; gravestone records; bible records; etc., nowhere to be found in print. It has also, in "The Mayflower Genealogies," many lines of Mayflower descent that have never been published. All remittances should be made payable to the Society; and communications should be addressed to the Editor. 13 MEMBERSHIP REQUIREMENTS Eligibility Every living descendant of a Mayflower Passenger, as far as known, is descended from one of the twenty-two Passengers named in the following list, and applications for membership must show descent from one of these men. John Alden Edward Doty Henry Samson Isaac Alierton Francis Eaton George Soule John Billington Edward Fuller Mylcs Standish William Bradford Dr. Samuel Fuller Richard Warren William Brewster Stephen Hopkins William White Peter Brown John Howland Edward Winslow James Chilton Degory Priest Francis Cooke Thomas Rogers Applications for Membership Applicants, of either sex, must be at least eighteen years of age. Preliminary Application blanks, which may be obtained from the Secretary, must be endorsed by two members of the Society. The sum of ten dollars ($10.00), to cover the Entrance Fee and the Annual Dues for the current fiscal year, must accompany the Preliminary Application, when it is filed with the Secretary. After the Preliminary Application has been approved by the Membership Committee, the Pedigree Blanks are sent to the appli- cant, to be filled out in duplicate and returned to the Secretary within six months. After the line of descent is approved by the Historian, the application is voted upon by the Board of Assistants. Entrance Fee — Annual Dues — Life Membership The Entrance Fee is five dollars. The Annual Dues of members elected after 28 March, 1912, are five dollars, payable when the application is filed, and on the first day of each succeeding March; and all such members, after they have paid their dues for the current fiscal year, receive, without additional charge, the Society's two magazines, "The Mayflower Descendant." which is issued quarterly, and "Pilgrim Notes and Queries," which is issued eight months in the year, omitting June to September.
