Should any of the grand children of Margaret Horney choose to do so, we may lay claim to descent from the “Mayflower Compact” through this line. Margaret Horney through her connection to the Chipman line is our link to the Howland family. Hope Howland is Margaret Horney’s 7th great-grandfather.

A part of our heritage in the Quaker community may also derive from this New England family. More will be said about the individual families as each is introduced later on.
