(1) John TILLEY on Wikipedia.

"John TILLEY was baptized on December 19, 1571 at Henlow, co. Bedford, England. He was the eldest child of Robert John TILLEY and his wife Elizabeth. John had a younger brother, Edward, who also came on the Mayflower with his wife. Both John TILLEY, his brother Edward and their wives all perished that first winter in the New World. There is little information about the lives of John TILLEY and his wife Joan. John TILLEY was documented as a member of the Leiden Separatist congregation as well as his brother Edward. Both John TILLEY and his brother Edward were involved in the early exploring expeditions of the Cape Cod area in November and December 1620, with both suffering the effects of being ill-clad and wet in freezing temperatures."

"John TILLEY married Joan (HURST) ROGERS, widow of Thomas ROGERS (no relation to the Mayflower passenger of that name) on September 20, 1596 at Henlow in Bedfordshire."

"This family in the later recollection of William Bradford: 'TILLIE and his wife both dyed a little after they came ashore; and their daughter Elizabeth married with John HOWLAND, and had issue as is before noted. They were buried in Coles Hill Burial Ground in Plymouth, most likely in unmarked graves as with so many who died in that first winter. Their names, along with many others who died that winter, are memorialized on the Pilgrim Memorial Tomb on Coles Hill as John TILLEY and his wife.'"
