The 102 who got on the Mayflower are famous. But what about those who didn’t make it on to the ship for that fateful voyage? This is the little-known backstory of the heroes who allowed the Pilgrims the freedom to travel. Those who were imprisoned, leaders who were needed by the flock who couldn’t go and even those who were afraid of taking the trip. These unsung heroes allowed the famous pilgrims to have their spotlight in history. Now we turn the spotlight on them. Presented by Lori Coffey.

In addition, it also shows how to uncover hints on using resources outside of the census itself. Presented by Jean Roberson.
