jamestown colonists from 1607 to 1622

Having colonial ancestry makes us part of a vast interconnected American family tree that traces its roots back to the same relatively few early settlers. The founders in the 1600's numbered in the tens of thousands initially, yet their descendants multiplied rapidly through high birth rates and intermarriage within isolated communities. When you consider that nearly every branch of our family tree traces back to colonial times, that we descend from those who settled Jamestown in 1607, arrived on the Mayflower in 1620, came with the Winthrop Fleet in 1630, and came from the Netherlands in the 1600's, it's not surprising that we share familial ties with a surprisingly broad network of fellow Americans. Our shared heritage underscores a collective story of resilience and expansion, united by the legacies of  those few adventurous forebears who started it all centuries ago.
