"The Chipman lineage in America is traced from at least four of the passengers from England to America on the Mayflower... And a little later, Priscilla, wife of Seth Chipman (18) and daughter of Maj. John Bradford, was descended from Gov. Bradford and her mother, Mercy Warren, whose ancestors also came to America on the Mayflower. So that branch of the Chipman family descended from Seth Chipman (18) can trace their descent from six if not eight of the Mayflower passengers." The Chipman Family, a genealogy of the Chipmans in America, 1631–1920, by Bert Lee Chipman.
