No, those are 15th generation.
We came from Germany to Philadelphia via Dublin a little after them because the French burned our house down.
Oddly, I'm a 13th gen Mayflower. They liked to keep cranking 'em out for a while I guess. Might also explain the offshoot that became Mormon. We don't associate with them.
I estimated the generations for mine and just added two because we came 40 years after. Depending on the fecundity of my line it might be more than that.
Strangely, I'm a 13th generation Mayflower baby as well (via John Howland), but unfortunately my whole family has long been Mormon (not me since I graduated high school at least). I don't associate with them either.
