What is the mayflower?
The
Mayflower
was hired in London, and sailed from London to Southampton in July 1620 to begin loading food and supplies for the voyage--much of which was purchased at Southampton. The Pilgrims were mostly still living in the city of Leiden, in the Netherlands. They hired a ship called the
Speedwell
to take them from
Delfshaven
, the Netherlands, to Southampton, England, to meet up with the
Mayflower
. The two ships planned to sail together to Northern Virginia. The
Speedwell
departed
Delfthaven
on July 22, and arrived at Southampton, where they found the
Mayflower
waiting for them. The
Speedwell
had been leaking on her voyage from the Netherlands to England, though, so they spent the next week patching her up.Slide3
