- From "The Mayflower 500" by Gary Boyd Roberts (2020), p. 639 ff
An article in Mayflower Descendant 67 (2019): 117-149 argues persuasively from DNA evidence that the father of John Sprague, Jr. (ca. 1655-1727/8) of Duxbury, Mass., and Lebanon, Conn., was not John Sprague (ca. 1610-1676), husband of Ruth Bassett, but a member of the Mayflower Fuller family, almost certainly Samuel2 Fuller, son of Mayflower passenger Samuel Fuller and Bridget Lee. ... If this concluseion is correct, the distinguished British of Lord Randolph [Henry Spencer-] Churchill and jeanette "Jennie" Jerome have a Mayflower passenger descent as well as a line from John Howland's brother Arthur. Other Fuller-Sprague descendants, through only one of seven children of John Sprague Jr., and his first wife, Lydia ____, include "Natacha Rambova", whose John Howalad descent is charted on p. 43 [2] herein, noted costume and set designer, actress, Egyptologist and wife of movie idol Rudilph Valentino; and Marion Robert [later Mitchell] Morrison, known as John Wayne, the actor. Yet another Fuller-Sprague descendant, as treated by Christopher Challender Child in "Mayor Pete's Cousins" (https://vitabrevis.americanancestors.org, posted 17 June 2019), is 2020 Democratic hopeful Peter Paul Montgomery "Pete" Buttigieg.
