the Pilgrims.
There were about 150 people in all on the Mayflower. The passengers counted 102. They landed on what is now Cape Cod in the winter, so passengers and crew lived on the ship until spring. The Mayflower left the Pilgrims for a voyage home in April of 1621.
The Mayflower Compact was an agreement to obey all laws in the Pilgrims' colony at Plymouth Colony.
The signers all agreed to follow the same laws for an organized government. All men on the Mayflower, both pilgrims and non-pilgrims were expected to sign it.
The Pilgrims outnumbered the strangers whom were brought by merchants.
The Pilgrims who landed in Plymouth were affected by the Pact. It outlined the "rules of behavior" they all agreed upon.
Forty-one people signed the Mayflower Compact. All signers were males.
Half the crew died due to a disease described as a mixture of scurvy, pneumonia and tuberculosis. View http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mayflower#Pilgrims.27_voyage for more information.
