Individual Notes
• The ancestry of Edward Doty is unknown. He came on the Mayflower as an apprentice (“servant”) to Stephen Hopkins.
There are no fewer than eight known genuine Edward Doty baptisms that occurred between 1585 and 1605, but none have been conclusively identified as the Edward Doty of the Mayflower.5185, p 2
• Age probably about 21, servant to Stephen Hopkins.3387, p 3
• There is nothing in the records to show definitely where Edward Doty was born nor when. Search for his ancestry has been diligently made in England and France but with no avail. It is said that during the World War contact was made with an English soldier of the same name and he related that our ancestor was the youngest son of a Scotch Baron and because of their custom in those days of passing estates to the eldest son and thus cutting off the younger ones entirely of their inheritance, Edward Doty left his home and went to London where he became Interested in the voyage to America. Since he was treated with the same consideration as all other members of the Company we can only assume that he had attained his majority about the time of the landing, hence we recon his birth in 1599.3393, p 6
