The Mayflower brought the Pilgrims to America in 1620. The Pilgrims were English Separatists who sought freedom from religious persecution in England. In late December of 1620 they landed and founded the Colony of Plymouth, Massachusetts.

This carving is based on blueprints and information provided by British Marine Architect David MacGregor, American Marine Architect William A. Baker and C.F. Travers, Head of Research at Plymouth Plantation.
