EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, Sir James Waterlow (right) pays tribute to his esteemed ancestor, Mr. Hugh Winslow, in a heartfelt ceremony held in 1955. The occasion marked the honor and pride shared between the two men, both of whom were connected to the historic Mayflower voyage of 1620. Hugh Winslow, a proud descendant of Edward Winslow, one of the renowned Pilgrim Fathers, gazes intently at Sir James as the latter places a hand on his shoulder in recognition of their shared heritage. Edward Winslow was an integral figure in the founding of New Plymouth, serving as its first Governor. The image captures a poignant moment in history, as the connection between the past and present is brought to life. The significance of the Mayflower voyage, which brought about the establishment of the Plymouth Colony in America, continues to resonate deeply with both Sir James and Mr. Winslow. The solemn atmosphere of the event underscores the importance of preserving the rich history of the Pilgrims and their journey to the New World. The photograph offers a glimpse into the personal connection between two individuals, bound by their shared lineage, and serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy of the Pilgrims and their role in shaping the history of the United States. This poignant moment in time stands as a testament to the importance of family history and the indelible impact of the Pilgrims' journey on generations to come.
