The Story is about the Pilgrims and the Wanpanhoag Indians. The pilgrims had suffered through a devastating winter where half their tribe died.Without the help of the Indians all of them would have perish. After the Havest of 1623 the Governor proclaim a day in November where the pilgrims can gather,give prayer,listen to the pastor and eat.

The story is about the Pilgrims who came from England to Plymouth Rock in 1620. Many people died on the ship, and many during the first harsh winter.

There was an Indian named squanto (sp?) who became friend with the Pilgrims and taught them to live off the land, how to fish, plant crops, cut wood etc. The pilgrims were thankful to the Indians for helping them learn to survive and the first harvest was very good and they had a feast, in appreciation of the Indians and they celebrated for 3 days.

Many people think this was the first Thanksgiving and in a way it was, however..Thanksgiving didn't truly become a holiday until whenever Abraham Lincoln made it one. Maybe the 1800s?
