About This Scholarship

In order to promote and aid research into the experience and principles of the Mayflower Pilgrims, the Mildred Ramos Scholarship Fund was created in 2012. It was given that name in recognition of Miss Mildred Ramos, who held the positions of Governor General of the General Society of Mayflower Descendants and Governor of the Mayflower Descendants in the Commonwealth of Virginia. On May 5, 2012, the Virginia Mayflower Society gave its $1,620 yearly prize for the first time. This scholarship is supported by the society’s members and friends. The Mildred Ramos Scholarship Fund was established in memory of our current assistant secretary, Mildred Ramos, who over the years served in a number of capacities for both the Virginia Society and the General Society, including Governor General and Governor of our state organisation.
