Anne & Little James passengers (Y-DNA)
Male Anne and Little James passengers
In 1623, Anne and Little James were the third and fourth ships financed by the London-based Company of Merchant Adventurers to travel together to North America in support of the Plymouth Colony, following Mayflower in 1620 and Fortune in 1621. Anne carried mostly passengers, while the much smaller Little James carried primarily cargo, albeit with a few passengers as well. After a stormy three-month voyage from England, Anne arrived at New Plymouth in early July 1623, with Little James arriving a week or so later.
Between them the ships brought 90-odd new settlers, along with about thirty others who were not part of the core emigrant group. Many of this emigrant contingent would serve the colony well in the coming years, while others would be judged unfit for the hardships of colony life and be sent back to England.[1]
Through the research of several experts, including Charles E. Banks, Edward A. Stratton, Robert S. Wakefield, Robert Charles Anderson and others, it is believed this list is complete.

- Jump up ↑ 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.
- Jump up ↑ Names with an * are individuals found in the 1623 land division but not the 1627 cattle division. These folks either emigrated back to England or died during the intervening period. For the purpose of this wiki, they are considered to have left no surviving descendants.
