The concept of this genealogical project was first formally conceived by George E. Bowman in Boston and Herbert Folger in San Francisco in the early 1900s. The format was an expanded version of the Alden Memorial published in 1867. With full approval at the annual meeting of the General Board of the Society on September 19, 1959 the project was officially started.
Sixteen years later the first genealogy entitled Mayflower Families Through Five Generations was published with the first five generations of descendants of Pilgrims Francis Eaton, Samuel Fuller and William White; Volume 2 was issued in 1978, families of James Chilton, Richard More and Thomas Rogers; Volume 3 in 1980, family of George Soule. Then ten years later, Volume 4 in 1990, family of Edward Fuller; Volume 5 in 1991, families of Edward Winslow and John Billington; Volume 6 in 1992, family of Stephen Hopkins; Volume 7 in 1992, family of Peter Brown; Volume 8 in 1994, family of Degory Priest; Volume 9 in 1996, family of Frances Eaton,; Volume 10 in 1996, family of Samuel Fuller, Volume 11 in 1996, family of Edward Doty, Part One; Volume 12 in 1996, family of Francis Cooke, Volume 13 in 1997, family of William White and Volume 14 in 1997, family of Miles Standish.
More recently additional volumes have continued to roll off the press. Volume 15 contains information on the family of Myles Standish, Volume 16, John Alden's family, of course, Volume 17 Isaac Allerton and finally, Volume 18, Richard Warren.
