| Welcome to the PJHS Web site. The Society consists of descendants
of the Pilgrim John Howland, one of the 102 English passengers who
came to New England from Holland and England aboard the ship Mayflower
in 1620.
John Howland was born about 1592/3. He came to Plymouth on the
Mayflower in 1620 as a servant to John Carver. During the Atlantic
voyage, he was swept overboard and rescued. He also served as
a member of the party that explored Cape Cod before the landing
in Plymouth.
