Male Fortune passengers
The Fortune arrived at Plymouth Harbor on 9 November 1621. While no passenger list survives, Gov. Bradford noted there were 35 passengers aboard. In 1623 he told John Pory, a visitor to Plymouth, that "for the space of one whole year of the two wherein they had been there, died not one man, woman or child." Thus it is likely the 1623 Land Division contained 32 of the 35 passengers. There were two female passengers: widow Martha Ford and Elizabeth, wife of William Bassett. Through the research of several experts, including Charles Banks, Edward Stratton, Robert S. Wakefield, Robert Charles Anderson and others, it is believed this list is complete.

- ↑ Most SNP results may still be further refined as more Y-DNA descendants of Mayflower Passengers obtain Next Generation Sequence (NGS)/Whole Genome Sequence (WGS) tests. Italics indicate the haplogroup is merely predicted based soley on STR testing and may not be precise. In some of these cases, the result could be inaccurate due to inadvertent errors in lineage tracing. See surname sub-pages for further details and references.
