In September 1620, a merchant ship called the Mayflower set sail from Plymouth, a port on the southern coast of England. Typically, the Mayflower's cargo was wine and dry goods, but on this trip the ship carried passengers: 102 of them, all hoping to start a new life on the other side of the Atlantic.

The Mayflower is commonly known as the first ship to sail to the US, however, there are some people who believe that the Vikings sailed there faster than any other Europeans

The Indians do not count because they did not sail. Instead they crossed a land bridge


hope this helps
