It seems paradoxical to speak of child-life in this hard-pressed,
serious-minded colony, but it was there and, doubtless, it was
normal in its joyous and adventuresome impulses. Under eighteen
years of age were the girls, Remember and Mary Allerton, Constance
and Damaris Hopkins, Elizabeth Tilley and, possibly, Desire Minter
and Humility Cooper. The boys were Bartholomew Allerton, who
"learned to sound the drum," John Crakston, William Latham, Giles
Hopkins, John and Francis Billington, Richard More, Henry Sampson,
John Cooke, Resolved White, Samuel Fuller, Love and Wrestling
Brewster and the babies, Oceanus Hopkins and Peregrine White. With
the exception of Wrestling Brewster and Oceanus Hopkins, all these
children lived to ripe old age, --a credit not alone to their hardy
constitutions, but also to the care which the Plymouth women
bestowed upon their households
