Second trip to Plymouth, Ma and Bass Pro Shop Foxboro


October 16, 2010

First stop at Oliver Mills Park on road to Plymouth

Pilgrim Hall Museum

 

~ My middle name "Bartlett" was my grandmother's last name ~

 
          Richard Warren came on the Mayflower. His family came later on the Anne. Robert Bartlett also came on the Anne. Robert Bartlett married Richard Warren's daughter Mary after their trip on the Anne. They all settled in Plymouth and acquired several acres of land. The oldest Bartlett house burned down in 2005, it was the oldest house in the area. The Bartlett monument is on the Bartlett/Warren estate.

        We found the Bartlett Rock on Route 3A, after spending several hours looking for it two weeks ago. There is a small white sign near highway and you go down that path to rock monument. We also went to Pilgrim Hall Museum to see the Mayflower napkin (only cloth left from the Mayflower) that my ancestor Richard Warren carried with him. He carried it to remember his wife and family.

~  VERY STRANGE HAPPENINGS AT BARTLETT ROCK ~ 

 
 

          After I had taken my last picture at the Bartlett Rock and we were ready to leave, a large pricker bush caught my leg at the thigh. It wouldn't let go, I had a lot of trouble getting it unhooked since it was embedded in my thigh. They said it must be the Bartlett family not wanting me to leave yet.

          On the way down the path to the road, there was a large beautiful feather in the middle of the path in front of me. We all knew that it wasn't there when we walked in, since we were watching the ground for our footing. All five of us agreed that it definitely wasn't there before.

          At the end of the path, as we started toward the Motorhome,  only about thirty feet away were three deer in an open area stopped and looking at us. Before I could take a picture, they turned and walked into the woods toward the Rock.

          After I posted pictures on website, Trish saw an image on the top of the last picture that I took at the rock (that's when the bush grabbed me). I zoomed in on the top of the picture and yes there is an image!
