      Hi John. The Pilgrims could have used ceramic jugs, or glass bottles to store things like oil, vinegar, etc. Olive oil was used both in England and the Netherlands at the time.

    Me too. 1650. My home town was settled in 1675 and is just into Rhode Island on the coast. The last of the colonies. I would follow the herring from Tunapis pond across Goose Wing road and watch them spawn way up until the creek ran dry.

    I am an Australian descendant of the Rev Thomas Blossom, who was a friend of Pastor Robinson. They were both graduates of Corpus Christi College Cambridge and both resided in Leiden Holland, before Blossom and family left on the Mayflower II. He died soon after from fever. He had older children in England, from whom our family are descended through Richard Thomas, whose mother was Hannah Blossom. Her brother, also called Thomas Blossom, was a Missionary in Tahiti. I recently published The Pilgrim's Progress to Victory on Amazon, by Kay Thomas PhD.

      The Pilgrims obviously did not have access to the electronic cooking tools we use today, so everything was crushed and blended by hand. This is just a modern, faster adaptation.

    This is quite fun. I’ve been tracing the genealogy of the backwoods “real Vermonter” side of the family. I’ve always thought we were more akin to 1972 Plymouth Dusters than 1492 Plymouth Rocks. Just last week, however, I discovered we had ancestors (Cooke and the Billingtons) who came across on the Mayflower, with several more following in the Great Migration. So, I’m strapping on my buckled shoes and tall black hat and learning about the Pilgrims and the Puritans. Thank you for this channel!

    Thank You for this Presentation. I enjoyed it immensely. I am a Brewster Descendent from William and Mary Brewster of the Mayflower. William Brewster had a Prophecy: In our Heaviest Trials have not the Divine Presence ever been with us?... "Generations to come shall look back to this Hour, and these scenes of agonizing Trial... and say: Here was our beginning as a people. These were our Fathers through their trials we inherit our Blessings." Ironically, it was Abraham Lincoln one of our Greatest Presidents, that set aside Thanksgiving Day as a day to remember our Beginnings. some 220 years later.
