Yesterday’s Minneapolis StarTribune included a little teaser article under the headline Mayflower genealogies help descendants:

"Figuring out whether you’re a descendant of a Pilgrim is now just a mouse click away. A monthslong effort to digitize and index the authenticated genealogies of Mayflower passengers is available at americananestors.org, the New England Historic Genealogical Society (NEHGS) said. It includes 193,000 birth, baptism, marriage, death and burial records through five generations of 50 of the 51 Pilgrims known to have descendants."

However, note that access to the Mayflower Families Fifth Generation Descendants 1700-1880 database requires a membership. The NEHGS three-month subscription may be a good option; it costs $34.95 and gives you access to all online and in-person resources.
