Bradford’s Journal Of Plymouth Colony
Check out Rush Limbaugh- True Story of Thanksgiving
http://www.pilgrimhallmuseum.org/index.html
WHAT: First 30 years of Plymouth Colony
The journal is the history of the first 30 years of Plymouth Colony, handwritten by William Bradford. It is known as “Of Plymouth Plantation” from the heading on the first page. The Bradford journal is the single most complete authority for the story of the Pilgrims and the early years of the Colony they founded.
WHO: William Bradford, the author of the journal
William Bradford, the author of the journal, was not only an eyewitness to the early years of Plymouth Colony, but he was also a leader of the Pilgrim community. The survival of the Colony was in large part due to his patience, wisdom, and courage. Bradford was born in Austerfield, England, in 1590. A member of the Scrooby Separatist congregation, he spent 12 years in Holland with the community and was a Mayflower passenger. After the death of Plymouth Colony’s first governor, John Carver, in 1621, William Bradford was elected governor. He held that position, except for five 1-year terms, for the remaining 36 years of his life.
WHEN: Written between 1630 and 1647
Written between 1630 and 1647, the journal describes the story of the Pilgrims from 1608, when they settled in Holland, through the 1620 Mayflower voyage, until the year 1647. The book ends with a list, written in 1650, of Mayflower passengers.
WHY THE JOURNAL IS IMPORTANT:
The Bradford journal is the single most important source of information about the Pilgrims and Plymouth Colony. Bradford’s history is a blend of fact and interpretation. The Bradford journal records not only the events of the first 30 years but also the reactions of the colonists. The Bradford journal is regarded by historians as the preeminent work of 17th-century America. It is Bradford’s simple yet vivid story, as told in his journal, that has made the Pilgrims the much-loved “spiritual ancestors of all Americans” (Samuel Eliot Morison)
HOW THE JOURNAL HAS TRAVELED:
The original Bradford manuscript was used in the 17th and 18th centuries by other colonial historians. The manuscript was known to be in Boston’s Old South Church Library in the 1760s but then disappeared. It was rediscovered in the library of the Bishop of London in the 1850s. Formal proposals to return the manuscript were not successful until the 1897 initiative of the Hon. George Hoar, U.S. Senator from Massachusetts, was supported by the Pilgrim Society, the American Antiquarian Society, and the New England Society of New York. The Bradford journal was presented to the Governor of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and is on deposit in the State Library in the State House in Boston.

ABOUT 17TH CENTURY BOOKS & MANUSCRIPTS:
Early in the 16th century, rag-based paper replaced parchment book pages. Both parchment and rag paper are very durable. Documents from the 17th century usually outlast those written on the highly acidic 19th and 20th-century wood pulp-based paper. William Bradford’s manuscript journal is a vellum-bound volume measuring 11 1/2″ by 7 3/4.” There are 270 pages, numbered (sometimes inaccurately) by Bradford himself. The ink is slightly faded and has turned brown with age, but it is still completely legible. The pages are somewhat foxed (discolored) but otherwise the almost 400-year-old document is in remarkably good condition. Bradford, like all writers of his time, uses a variety of spelling. A rule code for spelling was unknown then and dictionaries were uncommon. Consistency in spelling was not a virtue, even important state papers might reflect regional speech. In addition, there were a number of particular customs used, as for example the f-shaped s which was used when the letter s was doubled or used initially. Bradford’s Journal also uses common abbreviations such as wt for with, yt for that, and ye for the…

New Fourth Branch
Google Bing ABC NBC CBS CNN and Social Media Fourth Branch of Government
Collusion:
The collusion of the Search Engines, Social Media, and Big Letter Media with the Government to give this election to the one party, in America is so apparent to many of us Americans, that we know our nation will never be the same and the constitution as we know it, is gone. I have been shut out as many other conservative sites across America by Google, Bing, and the Big Letter Media. During this election process, I have monitored Internet Traffic. I was pounded all day by Google and MSN. They took copies of every page on my site. But when I did specific searches on my Domain and on my hashtag, America-in-2020.com, and america2020.us, the data was not to be found. Each search engine only had a very few of my pages and the only way to see them is to “quote the search” “America-in-2020.com”. I watch the traffic very closely. For the most part, they are old pages. This site has been around for 3 years.
The traffic I got was mainly from Twitter, but even that was limited even when I paid for it.
Response:
America needs laws to bring fairness to the web. Google and Bing have shut out anyone they disagree with. Bing’s SmartScreen constantly shows my sites in the Smartscreen Red alert or warning. There must be a class action law suite here somewhere that we can bring against Google and Microsoft. I have filled in the Smartscreen help 30 times to no avail. I collect Names and IPs for spam control only. They want me to pay for the cert and the secure site is what the help page says. I have no way of knowing. I never get a response.
I built websites and supported both Microsoft and Google since their inception. And this is how they turn on the average joe. There is no free internet. This website and several others I do for free. I have given up trying to go with the flow. It’s all about profit, profit with our data, and nothing in return.
Closed Site:
I will no longer make these opinions and observatios available to all. You Must register to view the contents of this site.
Don’t get me wrong. I see value in secure sites and certs. But on my retirement income, I would be broke. I know they don’t give a damn. It’s about time Google and Microsoft give back by providing certs and the current hosting companies provide secure hosting. But since all of the above-mentioned companies are colluding to shut out half of the Americans from participating in the current and so-called new government.
What really bothers me, we now have a fourth branch in our government. And they don’t hold to any values except world order.

About For Americans ToDay
Hi, Danwillie here with news on For Americans Today (4americans2day.com)! This is a new site that will explore the President Donald J Trump era and how he intends to Make America Great Again. This is a continuation of the old domains of USALIVE.today, America-in-2020 since 2013. I have added some of the old domain articles and photos to this website. Enjoy.
In ending, I have no reason to support Trump except that he gets the job done and he has America’s well-being first. But he needs America praying for him. He is as despicable as some of the Old Testimate Characters, but as we see, God’s Plan continues.
After all that is now happening, it appears Mike Pense chose a different route. I do believe he reacted to what he thought was the correct path. One thing for certain, with the current administration, the amount of corruption in America has become clearer to millions more Americans. Whoever gets in, in 2024, will have to deal with that corruption.
