• Notes

  Ruth was the sixth or quite possibly the seventh born child of John Alden [b. England c.1599-9/12/1687] and Priscilla [Mullins/Molines] Alden [b. Surrey, Eng. 1602-1685] who came to America on the Mayflower in the year 1620. Her parents married in Plymouth, Mass. in 1622 or 1623 and it was the first European-American wedding to take place. They are buried in the small town of South Duxbury that is north of Plymouth, at an old pioneer cemetery called Miles Standish Burial Ground. It is located south of where they settled in the town of Duxbury, on their 169 acre farm. Ruth was the younger sister of Elizabeth; Joseph, John, Sarah and Jonathan and the older sister of Rebecca, Priscilla, Mary and David. There was also an 11th. child that did not survive to adulthood [birth order unknown]. Ruth married John Bass [1632-1716] on February 3rd., 1657. when she was 22 or 23 years of age and they had seven children. Ruth died when she was about 40 years of age.
