Section 1: Puritans, introduces the reasons why the Puritan Movement set the stage for America's colonization and the Great Puritan Migration to New England. The stories of secret printing presses, clandestine meetings of reform-minded ministers, followed by their trials,
tribulations, and high court drama are pretty amazing indeed!
Section 2: Plagues, introduces how plagues ravaged families in London. In rapid succession, new characters introduce themselves as you
get to know their families intimately. You also learn about London's entertainment options and commerce during this time of high population growth. This occurs against the backdrop of waves of plagues, that cause us to consider what might have been for those that perished and admire those who survived. Their stories reveal many genealogical breakthroughs. Many of you will meet ancestors you never knew existed! The final chapters of Section 2 introduce additional court dramas causing chaos
for the families involved.
