| Notes |
- William Mullins was born about 1572 to John and Joan (Bridger) Mullins o f Dorking, Surrey, England. He married a woman named Alice, but her mai den name has not been identified. Longstanding claims that her maiden n ame is Atwood, or Poretiers, are without basis. Recent research in Dork ing records has suggested that Alice is more likely to have come from t he Browne, Gardinar, Dendy, Hammon or Wood families, perhaps even relat ed to Mayflower passenger Peter Browne who also came from Dorking. See t he Alice Mullins page for additional discussion on her possible identit y.
William brought his wife Alice and children Priscilla and Joseph on the M ayflower; he also brought over 250 shoes and 13 pairs of boots, his pro fession being a shoemaker. He died on 21 February 1620/1, during the fi rst winter at Plymouth, as did his wife and son Joseph. His original wi ll has survived, written down by Governor John Carver. In it he mention s his wife Alice, children Priscilla and Joseph, and his children back i n Dorking, William Mullins and Sarah Blunden. He also mentions a Goodma n Woods (likely a reference to the Wood family in Dorking), and a Maste r Williamson, who have not been identified, but is possibly an alias fo r William Brewster. It was witnessed by the Mayflower's master Christop her Jones, the Mayflower's surgeon Giles Heale, and governor John Carve r.
