From their website: Across the street and up the hill from Plymouth Rock is the historic Mayflower Society House – an 18th Century home originally built by Edward Winslow, great-grandson of the Pilgrim Edward Winslow. The story of the Society House extends across three centuries. Experience its rich history on a guided tour where you will learn about the many influential Plymouth families who lived here and preserved this home over the years.
From their website: It is the oldest continuously operating public museum in the country and America’s museum of Pilgrim possessions. Pilgrim Hall’s extraordinary collection of 17th century artifacts, some of which actually came on the Mayflower, illuminates the story of early Plymouth Colony. It’s an intimate story of families, of differing cultures, and of courage in the face of great difficulties. In many ways, it’s the story of the founding of America.
From their website: The Jabez Howland House is the only existing house in Plymouth where Pilgrims actually lived. In the 1940’s extensive work was done to bring it back to its original appearance. Today the museum houses fine period furniture as well as artifacts from archeological digs at the Rocky Nook homes of John and Elizabeth and their son Joseph’s farm.
