George Soule: Mayflower Passenger Documentary
Mayflower Pilgrim George Soule is the subject of this documentary. It covers the life of Mayflower passenger and Plymouth colonist George Soule; the Edward Winslow household to which he belonged; as well as his later wife Mary Buckett. Researchers Caleb Johnson, Sue Allan and Simon Neal discuss the genealogical and DNA research that has gone into trying to puzzle out his origins and parentage.

    George Soule Sr. is my 9th great grandfather and Benjamin Franklin is my 1st cousin 10x removed. Very interesting that they were both involved with early printing.

    My maternal grandmother Hazel Louella Sowl Dunbar was related to George Soule, I was told at Sowl reunions in Argyl, WI. Her mother was Frances Margaret Sowl. How do I find the lineage back to George Soule?

    Thank you for your research. George Soule was my 8th great grandfather. My mother's family member, Edmund Weston (1660-1727), married Rebecca Soule (1659-1732) the daughter of John Soule (1632-1732) the son of George.

    Back in 2012, I single-handedly went down the same YDNA research path to establish my own Mayflower descendance from Edward Fuller (to me an 11th great-grandfather). I found a correctly descended male Fuller living in Nevada (with whom I share my 5th great-grandfather Fuller) who agreed to do the YDNA test and in early 2013 the test results were a positive match to all other tested Fuller males who have complete paper trails pointing to Edward Fuller. This research took me exactly one year to accomplish. There were MANY dead-ends, disappointments and a lot of nail-biting along the way, but in the end, it was a success and what a journey it was.

    Did the researchers also check families with their names spelled "Sowell"? Also, growing up in New Orleans, my brother had a friend with the last name Soule, but their ancestry was FRENCH, and the accent was on the E, pronounced "Sulay". Is it possible that George Soule was French Huguenot?

  • @longuecarbine

    I was just doing some research on my Soule family connection. I found at least 5 Soule family members served during the Civil War in the 2nd Wisconsin Volunteer Regiment. One was 15 when he joined.

    Thank-you for making this video! I enjoyed it. I know I am a direct descendant of George Soule, Patience Soule married John Haskell, Haskell being my maiden name. I always wondered the story behind the ultimatum clause in the will. Was there fight going on between the siblings? It must be a good story!

  • @maureenshaw1751
    @maureenshaw1751 7 месяцев назад

    I'd look for George Soule ancestors under the name Soulice. There is an early Huguenot man by the name of Jean Soulice on the Huguenot Society of the US. The Huguenot connection to the Mayflower makes it a possiblity these two were connected. And the I haplogroup may be bc it's French.

    My 8th great grandfather James Chilton died on the Mayflower while it was anchored off the tip of Cape Cod shortly after signing the Compact and his wife died weeks later. There is a statue of their daughter Mary in Plymouth (first European woman to set foot in the New World), and she married John Winslow, Edward's brother. I am descended through their other daughter Isabella who came over from Leiden with her husband Roger Chandler about ten years later. The father of Edward Winslow (Edward Winslow Sr.) is my 10th great-grandfather. I'm descended through the brother, Kenelm (so Sir Isaac Newton is my 3rd cousin through his wife, my 9th great-grandmother Eleanor Newton). My 1st cousin 9x removed, John Haskell, married Patience Soule, daughter of George Soule and moved from Salem (the part that is now Beverly) to Middleborough in Plymouth Colony. George had specifically willed property to Patience with a warning to her brother to not bother her or John. When John's brother Mark was called for jury duty in the Salem witch trials he skipped town and moved to Rochester near Middleborough (better than being accused of witchcraft for not believing in witches and thinking the trials were nonsense). He became known as "Witchcraft" Mark. Another bit of family trivia: Mark's wife was Mary Goodale Smith and her uncle Jacob Goodale had been beaten to death by Giles Corey in 1675 (Jacob was an indentured servant and Corey was only fined for using excessive force when he beat him. People felt that he had gotten away with murder and that didn't help him in the witch trials later). Puritan family history sure is fun. John and Elizabeth Proctor are my 8th great-grandparents (through their son Samuel who was seven when they were convicted of witchcraft). Anne Marbury Hutchenson is my 11th great-grandmother. She was exiled to Rhode Island for causing the Antinomian controversy in Massachusetts Bay Colony. Boy! Those Puritans sure were all about freedom, weren't they? Did I mention that my 8th great-granduncle Mark Haskell (a different Mark) was fined five shillings for wearing broad lace by the Salem court in 1653?

    @maxschell8823 9 месяцев назад

    Interesting. We have the great fortune of having a family member who did the detailed genealogy research of the Soule family going back to 1620. One of documents includes the Soule family bible (ca. 1790) in which a record of the births and deaths were recorded. My grandfather, Thanet Francis Soule, (1898 to 1972) has an unusual first name. The Isle of Thanet is within Kent County. We would need to go back and carefully examine the research the possible birthplace of George Soule. Curious. My middle name is Thanet. Although I knew my great grandmother the reason for giving her son the name Thanet was never explained.

    Georg Soule is one of my 8 direct ancesters who signed the Mayflower Compact. His son Nathaniel initially caused a big hubbub when he fathered a baby with an Indian maiden. He then married a proper English woman named Rose Thorn and that couple are my direct ancestors.

    George Soule was my 9th great-grandfather. He was the 25th sigher of the Mayflower Compact,. Rumors circulated on a rebellion upoin arrival, I suspect Geroge Soule was one of those plotting the rebellion, So Bradford drew up the Mayflower Compact to pledge to unite as One body polickt After surviing the starving times. the Ann arrived with a resupply Bringing many of pilgirms family, and Mary Becket was among them. They married and had 9 children and Middle son George was my 8th great grandfather,. Who also had 9 children. a middle daughter Mary married Joshhop DeValle. And the DeValle line comes down straight to my grandmother. George Soule became a purchaser and a gentleman by the time he died. My records are skechy and your videow fills in some loose ends. thank you.

    Apparently I’m finding a lot of blood on here. George is my ancestor as well. I’m now the 14th generation from him. My 5 greats grandmother was Olive Soule. Went back from there and came across the fact that she was a grand daughter of George Soule. Direct lineage is insane to think about.
