Edward Doty of the Mayflower Born 1619.^3,4  

Edward Doty was one of the Pilgrims who came to Plymoth Rock, New England, on the Mayflower in 1620. He was one of the small number of survivors of the first winter in America, and his genealogy is recorded in "The Bowman Files" with the "Massachusetts Society of Mayflower Descendents".  One reference claims to have traced the Doty family in England from 1200 A.D.  

Edward was a "servant" (this could mean someone's personal servant, as in today's use of the word, or simply a ship hand).⁴  

He married Faith Clark.^1,3  Faith, daughter of Tristram Clark.³  

Edward Doty died Aug 23 1655.^1,3,4
