First-Comer? Saint? Pilgrim? Old Planter? These were all names given to the original Mayflower passengers, only half survived the first winter and made it to the “First Thanksgiving.” Among them was a young bastard boy, taken from his mother and shipped across the Atlantic. His name was Richard More and he would eventually make his way to Salem. Join Sarah and Jeffrey, your favorite Salem tour guides, as they talk about the second-to-last Mayflower Pilgrim left standing and the only one with a headstone from the time of death. He was a ship captain, a father, a tavern owner, and a husband to three wives. This bastard was no saint, for he was quite the trouble-maker as well.
