Did you say we had Mayflower Ancestors?

Plimoth Plantation, Plymouth, MA

I have not submitted the paper work to verify that my Mayflower claim is accurate but I am confident that I could prove our link to Richard Warren. There are published Mayflower genealogies that site sources for the relationships between Richard Warren and Samuel Cruff (Penelope Inman).(1) (2)

 I can prove that Artemas Cruff is the son of Samuel Cruff. Samuel Cruff left a will naming William Buffam guardian to his two sons Artemas and Dennis. Samuel fought during the Revolutionary War.  My thought is that Samuel wanted to provide for his two sons in case of his demise during the war. Samuel ended up surviving the war but this document proves their relationship. 

My main problem is proving that Eliza Sprague Cruff is the daughter of Artemas Cruff and Anna Tefft. There are only two Cruff families living in Rhode Island during the 1830 and 1840 Census. These two Census only list head of household and ages and sex of household members. Artemas lived in Burrillville, RI and Dennis lived in Coventry, RI. Marriage and death records for Eliza give Burrillville as a place of birth. Not conclusive but I think I could build a case if I ever get motivated to do so!
