The Great Migration

The goal of the Great Migration Study Project is to create comprehensive biographical and genealogical accounts of all immigrants to New England from 1620 to 1643, from the arrival of the Mayflower to the decline of immigration resulting from the beginning of the Civil War in England. The project was conceived by Robert Charles Anderson who now serves as Director of the Great Migration Study Project.
