This is the first I've heard of relics from the Mayflower surviving time, wear, and tear. Very interesting! Love Paul Harvey! I'm glad you replay his videos or soundtracks. His style never gets old and he always has me hanging onto every world.
What a stunning list descendants, thank you for covering this story. Yes, the British Navy certainly did rule in it's day with their masterful ships. Very incredulous to realize pieces of the Mayflower would end up on rural farms. What a wonderful Thanksgiving day, just saw "Napoleon", came home to Brad Dison upload, and now off to a feast, color me grateful in ALL shades!!!!!
It sounds like you had an amazing Thanksgiving. I was fascinated by this story and enjoyed researching this one a whole lot. I would love to visit the old barn one of these days if I could convince the owner to let me take a peak. :)
This is an amazing story ive never heard! Thanks for sharing, Brad! My ancestor was James Watkins, the right hand of Captain John Smith, who came over on the original 1607 voyage, and according to family lore was the namesake of Virginia's James River. Thanks again, Brad, and i hope your family had a blessed Thanksgiving!
James Watkins. I'll have to read up on him. That's wonderful to have a direct connection to the original voyage. My family had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I hope you and yours did as well. :)
This are great. When i was i kid my dad and I drive across america. We listen to Paul Harvey alot. Would eve relisten to him as we drove through different radio stations. Thanks
That's very neat. I hadn't really thought about the fact that if you traveled a long distance that you could pick up the same broadcast on another station. Very interesting. I'm glad you enjoyed listening. :)
That's a good story. I never heard of what happened to the Mayflower. Is it possible that wood survived that long? I believe that it could being kept dry and protected from the elements. Also I'm sure that the outer timber are probably infused with salt after drying out totally and leaving any salt in bedded into them. I hope one day that they can test it somehow to say it is and it can be preserved for future generations to see. As always please keep doing these. I enjoyed Paul Harvey as a kid and now again as an Grandfather.
While in England and Scotland, I saw some buildings with oak timbers dating back to the 1200s. Some were in excellent condition while others needed a little work. I hadn't thought about it being infused with salt but it makes perfect sense to me. Thank you for the kind words. I'm glad you are enjoying the broadcasts. :)
Paul Harvey did a story about how studies showed that the manna in the desert in the Old Testament was essentially Post Toasties of today. Do you have a way to find and play this recording for us? Love your channel and hearing these stories again! ❤️
Yep. Traced right back to him. Actually, they claim, or so I've heard all Standishs in the US of A are related in some way. My family is desendents of Myles.
Great story for Thanksgiving. As for could the barn still have beams from the Mayflower? I believe it could have been quite possible. I think since England doesn't seem to have as wood in their area as the USA, I am thinking they would save any wood they could get a hold of. I don't believe, and I could be wrong, that England has bad storms as the USA. Meaning their barns don't get damaged like they do here. I know of about 20 or so barns near me, that were damaged in tornados and high winds. The roofs were partially blown off and nobody repair them. They were slowly destroyed, until nothing was used from them. I believe , could be wrong, That English farms know how hard it is to get wood to replace damaged beams. so they take better care of what they have. I saw people tear down a barn that had Cyprus wood in it and burned it all, just a half mile from my house. I ask them if I could have the wood, but they said they didn't have time to mess with it. To say I was upset would be an understatement. Anywa,y have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
I believe the wood certainly could've been from the Mayflower. There are buildings that I saw while in England and Scotland that dated back to the 1200s. Some were in great condition while others needed some attention. They were all still very sturdy. You're right that they would repurpose wood. There are a couple of houses in Natchitoches, the oldest surviving town in the Louisiana Purchase, which were built from the remains of paddlewheel steamboats. I had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I hope yours was wonderful as well. :)
My family the Payne 's from England came over on it's 5th voyage, the Gardner family came over on it's 4th voyage, the Payne family & the gardner'swere married . Martha Washington was a cousin of the Payne family., Thomas A.Payne
That's very interesting. I don't think we study Mr. Hancock nearly as much as other founding fathers. Speaking of such, I think I'll search through old newspapers and see what I can learn about him that way. :)
I am a proud descendant of those who were on the Mayflower. A Mayflower “ship in a bottle” is a memento/reminder i cherish. ⛰🌲👨🌾🇺🇸🙏
That's wonderful to be a direct descendant. :)
Our family as well came over on it's 5th voyage, Last name, Payne, 4th voyage, the Gardner family.
Why should we doubt this . !all facts found lead to the conclusion enough to warrant the history of this is the wood of the MAYFLOWER.. GOD BLESS.
I agree. :)
Paul Harvey's stories were always so interesting! Thank you for bringing them back to life.
I'm very glad you're enjoying listening. :)

Really enjoyed hearing this story. I have been researching my ancestors and it amazes me how much history is intertwined.
Oh yeah. When you really start digging into history, it's all interconnected. I'm very glad you enjoyed it. :)

It’s truly amazing how they get all the back stories from all these historical events
I always want to know more. Mr. Harvey and his son, "Young" Paul, did a great job on "The Rest of the Story." :)
Brad, oOnce again, I am amazed at the wealth of information you and Paul Harver have uncovered and presented!!!
I'm glad you enjoyed it and found it informative. This was one of my favorites to research. I would love to visit it one of these days. :)
This are great.

Wow! What a story. That would be something worth visiting. Happy Thanksgiving.
I have added it to my list of places to visit. Maybe I can convince the owner to let me take a peak. :)
Thanks for another Paul story.Really like your follow up.Thanks again.👍
I’m glad you enjoyed it. :)
Thanks Brad 😊
You're very welcome. I'm glad you enjoyed it. :)
Very interesting!!!
I'm very glad you enjoyed it. :)
Paul Harvey did a story about how studies showed that the manna in the desert in the Old Testament was essentially Post Toasties of today. Do you have a way to find and play this recording for us? Love your channel and hearing these stories again! ❤️
I'll see if I can find that one. :)
Very good Brad! Happy Thanksgiving!
Thank you very much. I had a great Thanksgiving. I ate too much. hahaha. :)
My Nanuet NY neighbor was a descendent. She threw a Christmas 🎄 time high tea every year !
That's very neat. :)
Great story.
Thank you very much. I want to go take a look for myself. :)
Love the channel brother 👍
Thank you very much, Randy. I'm very glad you're enjoying it. :)
Its very plausible. I believe it is an authentic Mayflower barn.
Based on the limited information available, I believe it to be authentic as well. :)
Yelp. It's a possibility ! Happy Thanksgiving Brad ✌️😎
I think so as well. Thank you, Mike. I hope you had a Happy Thanksgiving as well. :)
@@BradDison indeed I did. And I'm still eating leftovers can't let it go to the trash. Good stuff. ✌️😎
There are a lot of houses built from ship's that ran aground after fleeing the European continent.
That's right. :)
My (many times removed) Myles Standish got here(North America) on the Mayflower.
You're a descendant of Myles Standish? That's impressive. :)
Yep. Traced right back to him. Actually, they claim, or so I've heard all Standishs in the US of A are related in some way. My family is desendents of Myles.
Good story! I'm one of those 35 million Americans that is a descendent of a Mayflower passenger.
That's amazing. I haven't traced any of my lines directly back to the Mayflower. I hope I'm in that group somehow. If not, I am in spirit. :)
I was CERTAIN you were going to end with, "And now you know the rest of the rest of the story." 😁
I may try that one day. I've shied away from it because it was such an iconic phrase of his. :)

WOW!!! That's amazing. :)
That broken cross member, probably hit a rock , called Plymouth Rock, now you know the rest of the story.👑
Hahaha. :)
My family the Payne 's from England came over on it's 5th voyage, the Gardner family came over on it's 4th voyage, the Payne family & the gardner'swere married . Martha Washington was a cousin of the Payne family., Thomas A.Payne
That’s awesome. :)
❤❣️😉❤️🙏💯%🙏
:)
My family is related to John Hancock.
That's very interesting. I don't think we study Mr. Hancock nearly as much as other founding fathers. Speaking of such, I think I'll search through old newspapers and see what I can learn about him that way. :)
@@BradDison
My family for some reason dropped Hand and spelled cock , cox.
❤👍
Thank you very much. :)
Why not!!!
I agree. It makes perfect sense to me too. :)
Of course it’s possible
That's right. :)
wow
You're right about that. I could've gone on for days talking about their cars, but most people would've jumped ship. hahaha. :)
I cannot be a descendent, my family came in 1652.
No kidding? Wow. :)
I think the entire story of the Mayflower is a lie.
I don’t know how to respond to your comment. :)
