The Cape May County families of Pilgrim descent are from three Mayflower passengers, John Howland, his wife Elizabeth Tilley, and her father, John Tilley. Based on early land, marriage, cemetery and church records, this definitive work contains hundreds of interrelated genealogies, which come down to the early 20th century. At least 10,000 persons are cited in the index.
