The Pilgrim Fathers traveled on the Mayflower
The Pilgrims left England in 1608 and went to Holland. They considered the Dutch morally bankrupt and left Holland on September 6, 1620 on a ship called the Speedwell. The Speedwell sailed to England to join up with the Mayflower. However, the Speedwell began to leak so badly that it returned to England and its 102 passengers continued on aboard the Mayflower.
The Pilgrim's ship was called the Mayflower because it was named after the mayflower plant, which is a type of flowering plant associated with spring and renewal. The name also reflects the ship's purpose, as the Pilgrims sought a new beginning in America for their religious beliefs. The Mayflower was the vessel that carried them from England to the New World in 1620, becoming a symbol of their quest for freedom and opportunity.

The Mayflower was a Pilgrim ship that sailed from Plymouth, England, to the New World, specifically to what is now Massachusetts, in 1620. It carried a group of English Puritans, known as the Pilgrims, who sought religious freedom and a new life in America. The ship famously landed at Plymouth Rock, where they established the Plymouth Colony.
The Pilgrim ship Mayflower arrived at Plymouth Rock on December 21, 1620. After a challenging voyage across the Atlantic, the ship's passengers disembarked and established one of the first successful European settlements in New England. The landing marked a significant moment in American history, symbolizing the Pilgrims' search for religious freedom.
