Mary Tilley, wife of John Upton, granddaughter of John Tilley of the Mayflower, daughter of Robert Tilley, son of John Tilley of the Mayflower. If this is correct and John Upton and Mary Tilley Upton are my ancestors, then I’m related to John Tilley of the Mayflower, am I not? My ancestor is John Upton and Mary Tilley Upton and the children of both qualify me to be related to an Mayflower passenger by virtue of John Tilley and his granddaughter, Mary Tilley Upton. Am I correct? Also, if Elizabeth Tilley Howland, also a passenger of the Mayflower and John Howland, by virtue of their kids and the descendants thereafter, would afford me a relation to John Howland and Elizabeth Tilley Howland. Once again, am I correct? Thanks, Bob

I am right with you, Bob, on the connection to John Tilley on the Mayflower through his granddaughter Mary Tilley. My paternal grandmother's mother's maiden name was Upton. They lived in southern Illinois in Hamilton County. I believe that I too am related through this connection. So, I also agree that you are connected through Elizabeth Tilley Howland. By my reckoning, she appears to be the sister to Robert Tilley, Mary Tilley Upton's father. It would also follow that you and I are distant cousins through the Uptons. How are you related to them? Are you on Facebook or other social media? What is your email address? Mine is stl.cardinals.fan@tds.net I sure do look forward to hearing from you soon!
