Excerpt from Arthur Deloraine Corey, 1866-1891: A Memorial

Arhur Deloraine Corey, the only child of Deloraine Pendre and Isabella (Holden) Corey, was born at Maiden, Massachusetts, on the thirteenth of April, 1866. By both parents he was descended from a race of ancestors who had borne their part in the settlement and progress of New England, whose names he often recalled with an honorable pride. Of the Plymouth Pilgrims - "the first comers," or the passengers of the "Mayflower," the "Fortune," and the "Ann" - he numbered thirteen of those whose blood he bore; and the names of John Alden and Priscilla Mullins, of John Rowland and Elizabeth Tilley, those lovers of the "Mayflower," familiar to his childish ears, may have sunk into his heart and influenced in many ways his future character.
