This family research is basically done in a linear fashion, tracing the Arnold Boss Webster Eaton and Pike names back to the British Isles (The Boss came from the Netherlands). Also included show a link from the Pike name, through Peter Norton back to the Mayflower to John, Joan and Elizabeth Tilley and John Howland.
Much of the research on Arnold, Boss and Webster was gleaned from One World Tree. The work on the Pike name was accomplished by Leon A. Pike and published in 1973 at Pittsfield, Massachusetts as: Forebears Family and Descendants of Jonas Goding Pike. Much of the credit for present-day input came from many family members, including my mother, Irene Esther Eaton Arnold and my uncle, Jacob Elihu Eaton.
I have some documentation put together by my mother's uncle, Clarence Elery Eaton, to support his applications for memberships in the Mayflower Society and a society for descendants of Revolutionary War fighting men.
