The population of Massachusetts in 1950 was 4,690,514. As of 2014, the population is 6.693-million. The first settlement in Massachusetts was founded by the Pilgrims in 1620, at Plymouth.
The pilgrims did not land in any state. No states existed when they landed.
There is no known state where the Pilgrims went before sailing to America. Though they had gone to the Netherlands for a number of years. The Mayflower left from England after stopping to meeting up with the Speedwell's passengers from the Netherlands and before traversing the Atlantic Ocean to land at Cape Cod instead of their expected destination at the Colony of Virginia.

The Pilgrims settled in what is now Massachusetts, which didn't become a state until 1788.
The Pilgrims wanted freedom from religious persecution. The Church of England was the state church and all other religions were banned. Most of the Pilgrims were Anabaptists or reformers of the church. This is why the "Separation of church and state" is part of our laws, the government did not want freedom from the church, but the church needed freedom from the government.

WRONG ANSWER BELOW the Pilgrims and the Purtians came to America to escape the state religion of England. Religions that didn't follow the Church of England were discriminated against and the people who practiced the religion were arrested. They wanted to be able to practice their religion without harassment from the government. This is one reason the founding fathers were careful when they wrote the constitution to keep a separation of church and state. They didn't want a government state religion.
It is Massachusetts, a state in the New England region of North America. It was named after the indigenous population of the Massachusetts tribe.
