how many pilgrims came over on the mayflower?

About 102 Pilgrims (passengers) came over on the Mayflower in 1620.

Quick Scoop

Most historians agree that:

• The Mayflower carried 102 passengers on its 1620 voyage from England to the New World.

• These passengers included both religious Separatists (often called “Pilgrims”) and other English settlers traveling for economic or personal reasons.

• In addition to the passengers, there were roughly 25–30 crew members on board, but they are not usually counted as Pilgrims.

A bit of extra context

• The group is remembered as the Pilgrims because many were seeking religious freedom from the Church of England.

• Tragically, about half of the 102 passengers died during the first winter after they arrived, due to disease, cold, and lack of adequate supplies.

TL;DR: Around 102 Pilgrims and other settlers crossed on the Mayflower, plus a separate crew of about 25–30 sailors.
