Correspondence added 11-03-2006, Passengers 28 & 30 VASSALL
Passenger 28, Judith Vassall, married Resolved White, son of Walter 
White.  Both Resolved and Walter were Mayflower passengers.  
She became my 8th great-grandmother.  Resolved died in Salem, about 1688, 
Judith in Marshfield about 1670. They had eight known children.
 
Passenger 30, Frances Vassall, married James Adams, son of John Adams who 
arrived on the "Fortune" in 1621.  She is also my 8th great-grandmother.
James died in Marshfield in Jan 1653/54.  I don't have a place or date of 
death for Frances.  They had five children.
 
I've been meaning to thank you for transcribing this ever since I found 
it about five years ago!
 
Yours
