[Opinions] Re: WDYT 15th century English ancestors
I know. I'm reading a biography about one of the Pilgrims right now (some of my ancestors were on the Mayflower), and in the exceprts, their spelling was horrible. I don't think they had standard spellings for anything back then. William Brewster (on the Mayflower) studied at Cambridge, but signed the Mayflower Compact Willim. Thank God for Noah Wester, no matter how weird the spellings seem.
