I owe my existence to a rope! I am a direct descendant of John Howland, a passenger on the Mayflower. John fell overboard during the voyage. He managed to pull himself back on board using a drag line that was trailing the ship. It was very common for couples to have 10 or more children back in those days, and John and his descendants were no exception. The chances are very likely that someone reading this is also a descendant of John's. Hello, cousin. Nice to meet you! We're lucky to be here...
