Best Answer

The "Strangers" were common people- Servants, Craftspeople and poor farmers.

The "Strangers" were not necessarily "poor folks" but anyone who was not a member of the Separatist religion. Richard Warren was one of the Strangers and was a man of wealth and rank and did sign the Mayflower Compact. Some of his descendants include 2 Presidents (Grant and FDR), former Governor Palin, the Wright Brothers, Richard Gere, Laura Ingalls Wilder, Alan Shepherd and Henry Longfellow.
