How to become a member...

To become a member of the California Mayflower Society, or to apply for a supplemental line:
​1. Complete, then submit, the information on the Join page of the California Mayflower Society webpage.
2. A State Historian will then send you a Preliminary Application Form via email.
3. Return your completed  Preliminary Application Form via US Mail to the State Historian.
4. Upon review of your application you will be contacted by the California Mayflower Society or our Colony Membership Chair, CMC, regarding the results of your application.


Some things to be aware of:
Birth, death and marriage certificates from a town, city, or county recorder's office are the preferred form of documentation.  Headstone photographs are an accepted form of documentation if they provide the necessary information. Multiple marriages must also be documented to ensure you are a "biological" descendant. Membership documentation from organizations such as the Daughter's of the American Revolution or the Sons of the American Revolution, while possibly helpful, are not automatically accepted as documentation for membership in the Mayflower Society. Your research project may be demanding but it will also be rewarding as you trace your line back to the Mayflower and "touch" American history.
