Elanor Allerton
Elanor Allerton (born March 30, 1639) was a notable colonist who became a victim of the Indian attacks around the original Jamestown settlement in the time leading up to Bacon's Rebellion. She became an important figure in history when her diary was discovered during the excavation of Jamestown. Early life Elanor was born in Whitby, England out of wedlock to John Allerton and Margaret Smith in 1639. John Allerton fled Holland in 1635 due to an outbreak of the Bubonic Plague. When he reached England, he entered into a brief affair with Margaret Smith and began to restart his shipbuilding business. With the news of Margaret's pregnancy, her mother, who came from a well-to-do family of nobles, paid her father off to keep Elanor away from the public eye until her 10th birthday. Her father contracted Syphilis from a local prostitute and began working on his final ship, which was a vessel meant for colonization of the New World.

According to the narrative, he died aged 180, the longest-lived of the three patriarchs.

John Allerton
This is a list of the passengers on board the ''Mayflower'' during its trans-Atlantic voyage of September 6 – November 9, 1620, the majority of them becoming the settlers of Plymouth Colony in Massachusetts. Of the passengers, 37 were members of a separatist Puritan congregation in Leiden, The Netherlands (also known as Brownists), who were seeking to establish a colony in the New World where they could preserve their English identities but practice their religion without interference from the English government or church. The ''Mayflower'' launched with 102 passengers, 74 male and 28 female, and a crew headed by Master Christopher Jones. About half of the passengers died in the first winter. Many Americans can trace their ancestry back to one or more of these individuals who have become known as the Pilgrims.
