Beginning of the Mapes Family in America
At a Mapes family reunion George E. Mapes reads a paper tracing the Mapes lineage to Thomas Mapes and Sarah Parker, Puritans who settled in Southold, Long Island, and ties to early Connecticut New Haven colony founders. The piece notes migration from England, early colonial life, and the blend of English and Dutch settlements in New York before its consolidation with Connecticut.
