I have recently traced my family tree back to Stephen Hopkins(1) of the Mayflower. Through his daughter, Constance Hopkins Snow(2) I am the 16th generation. Through his son, Giles Hopkins, I am the 15th generation.

It is Constance and Nicholas who are on my radar screen at the present time. They had a son, Joseph Snow(3) who married "Mary" who had a son Benjamin Snow(4), who had a son also named Benjamin(5).

Either or both Benjamin Snows moved from Massachusetts to Shelburne County, Nova Scotia and resettled. From Benjamin(5) my memory gets foggy - my notes are at home - but it clears up with Winthrop Snow(12), who had a daughter Nancy Louise Snow Murphy(13) who had a son Milton Murphy(14) who had a son "Roy" Murphy(15) who had me, Ruby Murphy Wood(16). With the generous assistance of my mother, of course.

Are there any descendents of Stephen Hopkins in general, and the Benjamin Snows in particular, who would like to trade information and/or conversation?

Also, can some kind soul tell me - how do you go about "attaching" youself to a Mayflower Passenger? What do you need to do for the Mayflower Society to prove a lineage? From Stephen Hopkins down to Benjamin Show is outlined in a book by the Mayflower Society - is that considered "established" so you don't have to re-prove it?

Any any all replies gratefully accepted!
