John Tilley (Mayflower passenger)
John Tilley (c.1571- winter of 1620/21) and his family were passengers on the historic 1620 voyage of the ''Mayflower''. He was a signatory to the Mayflower Compact, and died with his wife in the first Pilgrim winter in the New World.〔Caleb H. Johnson, ''The Mayflower and Her Passengers'', (Indiana: Xlibris Corp., 2006), p. 237〕 Both he and his brother Edward signed the Mayflower Compact.
==Life in England ==
John Tilley was baptized on December 19, 1571 at Henlow, co. Bedford, England. He was the eldest child of Robert Tilley and his wife Elizabeth. John had a younger brother, Edward, who also came on the ''Mayflower'' with his wife. Both John Tilley, his brother Edward and their wives all perished that first winter in the New World.〔〔''A genealogical profile of John Tilley,'' (a collaboration of Plimoth Plantation and New England Historic Genealogical Society accessed 2013) ()〕
There are few records of John Tilley’s life in England. His name appears in the will of George Clarke of Henlow, dated September 22, 1607 which notes that Thomas Kirke, then residing with Tilley, owed money to him. There is a record of a John Tilley, yeoman, residing at Wooton, Bedfordshire, who made a disposition on April 7, 1613 with his age stated as 40 years, which would probably make him the ''Mayflower'' passenger of that name.〔〔Charles Edward Banks, ''The English Ancestry and Homes of the Pilgrim Fathers'' (New York: Grafton Press, 1929), p. 88〕
There is little information about the lives of John Tilley and his wife Joan. John Tilley was documented as a member of the Leiden Separatist congregation as well as his brother Edward. Edward’s ward Henry Samson may also have been a member.〔〔Pilgrim Hall Museum for ''()''〕
