First Parish Meetinghouse is home to a collection of beautifully crafted stained-glass

windows, some designed by Tiffany Studios and donated by Mayflowers Descendants.

Designed by Edward Peck Sperry and made by Tiffany Studios. This window was made for the Society of Mayflower Descendants in the state of New York, to place in First Church in Plymouth, MA. It portrays the group at the table in the cabin including Bradford, Brewster, Winslow, Carver, Standish and Mrs. White.
