During the first winter in the New World, the ''Mayflower'' colonists suffered greatly from diseases like scurvy, lack of shelter, and general conditions on board ship. Forty-five of the 102 immigrants died the first winter and were buried on Cole's Hill.〔''(1998, Pilgrim Hall Museum, accessed August 29, 2006'' )''/〕 These persons * who died in the winter of 1620-1621 were most likely originally buried in unmarked graves in the Coles Hill Burial Ground, Plymouth, Massachusetts. In 1921 some of the remains of persons originally buried on that hill were collected into the sarcophagus that is the Pilgrim Memorial Tomb on Cole's Hill in Plymouth. Many of the persons listed here are named on the Tomb.〔http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=cr&CRid=2272036〕 ==Men== *John Allerton * *Richard Britteridge *, December 21 *William Butten/Button, November 6/16 on board Mayflower.
