Question

Did you know...?
disapproved of the Church of England's sympathies towards the Catholics? The Puritans wanted to
that in the early 17th century in England, a group of Protestants, known as the Puritans,
change the church. But a sub-group, later known as the Separatists
, wanted to be totally independent and
to found a church of their own. They went to the Netherlands and with some others who had remained
in England decided to set up a new church in America. Around 50 Separatists
, along with 50 pioneers
who wanted a new life and opportunities, left Plymouth, England in 1620 in a ship called the Mayflower.
These people later became known as the Pilgrims.

damp journey, and since the ship was wooden, passengers were not allowed to light a fire for warmth or
for cooking their food.

World? During the first year, the Pilgrims were nearly decimated by the brutally cold winter.
