Plymouth, MA has a variety of statues. One was erected by the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) some time ago, the other was more recently. On the back of the statue commemorating women of the Mayflower is a list that appears to be complete because it includes females for whom no first name, no middle name, or no name at all is known. The second is one of many statues created apparently in response to a recent contest to immortalize a certain edible crustacean. This study in bluegreen is at the Jenney Grist Mill in downtown Plymouth. No two are alike. I guess they are a lighthearted counterbalance to the seriousness of half one's friends dying of disease and starvation. Come visit Plymouth and see them all.
