Building on the previously published work of John Landis--the 1922 Mayflower Descendants and Their Marriages for Two Generations After the Landing--Mrs. Roser's work provides an accurate and reliable summary of all that is presently known about the passengers of the Mayflower for the first three generations in America--names, dates, places, spouses, children, etc. Unique to the Roser work, each third generation listing includes references to records or sources that will help the researcher find fourth generation children. And new to this edition is a "Probate Appendix" which will assist the reader in identifying fourth and fifth generation children. 
The second edition of Mayflower Increasings is, in fact, a whole new book, not just a simple revision of an established text, and it contains at least three times as much information as the original.

Mayflower increasings: For three generations

Genealogical Pub. Co

Mrs. Roser's canvassing of the Bowman papers has yielded three collections of indexed source records devoted exclusively to the progeny of the Mayflower passengers. Just back in print, the first of these is Mayflower Marriages, a compilation of 10,000 Mayflower marriages spanning five centuries, with names, dates, and sources, extracted from the files of one of the most respected names in the field of Mayflower research. Marriages are listed under the names of the respective Mayflower passengers.

Genealogical Publishing Company

This work is a compilation of birth and death records from the Bowman files, the largest manuscript resource on Mayflower genealogy in existence. With its companion volume Mayflower Marriages, it encompasses all the vital records of the descendants of the Mayflower passengers as found in the research files of the renowned genealogist and editor of The Mayflower Descendant, George Ernest Bowman (1860-1941), "the largest documented manuscript resource on Mayflower genealogy." With references to 50,000 Mayflower relations, this two-volume work contains, besides records of births, baptisms, deaths and burials, references to burial location, cause of death, and address at death gleaned from land and will records, court and church records, transcripts of personal letters, and more. In keeping with the format established in Mayflower Marriages, lines of descent are shown which enable the reader to trace back to the first generation any name that is accompanied by a generation number. Most lines are carried to the seventh and eighth generations, and some to the tenth. Each volume is separately indexed.

Reference

Genealogy

This is the last of a three-book series that includes Mayflower Marriages and the two-volume Mayflower Births &amp; Deaths . It is a compilation of deeds and probate records extracted and transcribed from the renowned Bowman Files. The several thousand deed abstracts provide such information as name, occupation, and residence; date, sale, price, acreage, and location of the land; and witnesses and date of recording. The will abstracts include bequests to friends and family, descriptions of personal real estate, and names of witnesses. The probate records associated with the wills are a goldmine of genealogical information, as they name heirs and their relationship to the deceased, minor children, guardians, and debtors. Researchers will also appreciate that the wills and deeds herein pertain to a number of non-Mayflower families whose lines originate in the counties of Plymouth, Bristol, or Middlesex, Massachusetts. With an index of 25,000 entries!
