There were only two ships that sailed with the pilgrims on them. The first ship was called the Speedwell and it had to turn back because it leaked. The second ship was the Mayflower and it landed at Plymouth Rock.

The first three ships that brought the pilgrims were all named the "Mayflower" with numbers following them in order. The first Mayflower voyage was the largest and contained 102 passengers plus crew.

The first 3 ships that actually TRANSPORTED the first Pilgrims to America were:

1) 'Susan Constant' (carrying John Smith)

2) 'Godspeed'

3) 'Discovery'

All landed here in 1607 & founded Jamestown, VA

'The Mayflower' then followed in 1620 which founded the Plymouth Colony, followed by numerous others in subsequent years (The 'Fortune' in 1621; The 'Anne' & 'Little James' in 1623; The 'Handmaid' in 1630; The 'Francis' in 1634 & The 'Abigail' in 1635)

In 1624 you also had the 'New Netherland' that carried 224 passengers & founded the new settlement 'New Netherlands' (which grew to encompass New York, Long Island, Connecticut, New Jersey & the southern tip of Manhattan named 'New Amsterdam')

Then in 1630, you had the 'Winthrop Fleet' which included 11 total ships (including the 'Mayflower' again) that founded the 'Massachusetts Bay Colony' (Boston)

NOT to be confused w/the 3 ships ('Nina', 'Pinta' & 'Santa Maria') that were part of Columbus' voyage in 1492 that led to his "discovery of the Americas", which was a completely separate voyage (100+ years earlier)

FYI, the Mayflower ship did bring over Pilgrims in 1620 (Plymouth) & again in 1630 to the 'Massachusetts Bay Colony' (Boston) in 1630 as part of the 'Winthrop Fleet', which was comprised of 11 total ships. But the first 3 were in Jamestown, VA & didn't include the 'Mayflower' (it was the 'Susan Constant', the 'Discovery' & the 'Godspeed')

However, it is incorrect that the only ships were Mayflower (there were MANY) & even more incorrect they were Mayflower w/numbers afterwards... The 'Mayflower II' was a replica built in the 1950's in commemoration of the Mayflower ship that brought over the pilgrims AND also was part of Columbus' voyage "discovering the Americas"
