This day in history: July 20th-the first day!
On this day in history:1July 20th, 704, the first baby born in America was the second child of the Mayflower traveler, William and Susanna White, who were considered as part of the London merchants' group, not the Dutch religious movement in Leiden. The couple, with their youngest son, decided to board may flower in England. They named their second son Peregrine Falcon, which means "traveler in a foreign country" or, more simply, "pilgrim". Considering that he was born at the end of 10 when the ship broke down in providence harbor,

In the first winter in the New World, William White died like many people in this group. Only three months later, on May 162 1 day, Susanna married another may flower passenger, Edward Winslow. The couple later had two children. The family of six lives in Marshfield, north of Plymouth.

Peregrine falcons have lived a good life. He was a militia lieutenant, then a captain. He is a representative of the community court, and like most settlers, he is also a farmer. He is the first community member born in this area and enjoys a slight celebrity status, but this does not exempt him from being brought before the local judge for "premarital adultery" with the bride-to-be, Sarah Bassett.

The young Randy couple got married on 1648, and finally had seven children. They moved to the land owned by Sarah's parents, and they came to Plymouth with Fortune magazine in 162 1. Peglin finally got 40 acres of his own farm, and then got more land at 1655, because he was "the first person born in these private limited companies in Britain". Decades later, he acquired 100 mu of land, which made his life relatively rich at that time.

He died on July 20th at the age of 83. 1704.

He wrote in the obituary of the Boston Bulletin:

Marshfield, Captain Peregrine White of this small town, died on July 22nd at the age of 83 years and 8 months. He passed away on the 20th. He is the son of Mr William White and his wife Susanna. He was born in Mayflower, Captain Jones, and was at Cape Cod Port in June 1620+0 1. He was the first Englishman born in New England. Although he lived a luxurious life in the first half of his life, he carried out many reforms in the last few years of his life and died hopefully.
