Soule was born in England about 1595, and as a young man became a teacher to Edward Winslow's children. Soule came with Winslow to America on the Mayflower in 1620 probably as an indentured servant. He was one of forty-one signers of the Mayflower Compact in November 1620. Soule was among the one half of the population that survived the first winter in Plymouth and was present at the time of the "First Thanksgiving" in 1621.
I am related to George Soule through his son Nathaniel Soule. Somewhere down the line the name was changed to Sowle. I was born Sandra Mae Sowle. I am trying to find out as much as possible about my ancestors.
ReplyDeleteI was told by my dad that there is a group called the Soule or Sowle Connection and I would love to get in contact with the group.
Sandy I am also descended from the Soule line our a ancestors carry the variation of Soules.
DeleteOops, The name of the group is something like Sowle Kindered, I think. The Soule Connection is the restaurant around Lake Tahoe owned by a distant relative.
