Peter Brown (Mayflower Pilgrim)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Peter Brown, also known as Peter Browne, was a passenger on the Mayflower and a Pilgrim on its voyage to what is now Plymouth Plantation. He was a planter -- that is, he owned and governed a plantation in England.[citation needed] He registered for the voyage with the Pilgrims to America.[1]
He was a signer of the Mayflower Compact and, thus, can be said to have become a Pilgrim Father.[1]
[edit] Descendants
The is a lot of diagreement on this. The Maydlower Scoiety says one thing and Peter bowns' actual derscendants all say something else, so we are leaving it blank. Besides it makes more sense if Peter Browns' kids have the last name of Browns and not something else.
