Giles Hopkins travelled to America in a good-sized family group: his father Stephen, sister Constance, stepmother Elizabeth, half-sister Damaris, and two servants of the family, Edward Doty and Edward Lester. A half-brother, Oceanus, was born during the voyage of the Mayflower.
It should be noted that the long-standing Constance Dudley myth was disproven in 1998: the Hopkins family of the Mayflower was not from Wortley, Gloucester as had been previously speculated and published. Giles came with his family on the Mayflower in 1620, at the age of 12.
