Mayflower Impact

I heard our ancestors came on the mayflower boat sad part there was not a journal or a note it sounds like a miracle my early grandparents Thomas and Susan Collier landed on Plymouth rock a vision of their voyage made me feel spooky, haunted and in shock its futile to prove our first ancestors came here maybe the government kept us from our powers for making history so dear my early grandparents Thomas and Susan collier survived the rough seas and this legacy means a lot to me all I know is Thomas and Susan Collier died in Plymouth rock somewhere much of our ancestry lineage was in Virginia and then Tennessee from there I met my kinfolks in Tennessee to learn about me I saw the grave yards in the forest where my natives are buried my ancestors lineage was kept in the bible like a passport our freedom was stronger than England's deport we were here before the written constitution we survive and out lived the genocide revolutions
