The Pilgrims.
The Puritans were formed by a group of dissenters from the Church of England. Because they believed the church was beyond the help of reforms, and because they were being persecuted in England, they left for America to establish a new home where they could practice their religion in peace.
The Puritans.
The Pilgrims left England and fled to America because the king of England at the time had not been lenient to those who opposed the church of England, so they left to America to freely practice their religion.
They left for religious freedom, the same reason they left England in the first place.
The settlers who arrived in Plymouth in 1620 were primarily from England. They were part of a group known as the Pilgrims, who left England seeking religious freedom and a chance to practice their faith without persecution. The Mayflower, the ship that carried them, set sail from Plymouth, England, to the New World.
because they wanted to practice there own religious beliefs and they were treated badly
The group of people that left England for the Plymouth Colony did so mostly for religious reasons. They were being mistreated in England and the Netherlands and thought America would be better.

The Pilgrims left their homes in Europe to escape religious persecution. They were seeking religious freedom and the opportunity to practice their faith without interference from the government or religious authorities.
The Pilgrims left England, not to find religious freedom, but to escape from it.
