Howland fell overboard in the Atlantic but was luckily hauled back on board by sailors; he went on to father 10 children with his wife Elizabeth Tilley, also a passenger on the Mayflower. They had over 80 grandchildren. Three presidents - Franklin Roosevelt, George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush - can trace their ancestry to him, as can vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin. Other descendents include poet Ralph Waldo Emerson, founder of the Mormon church Joseph Smith, famous pediatrician Dr Benjamin Spock and actors Alec Baldwin, Humphrey Bogart and Christopher Lloyd.
