Mormons (I am absolutely positive)
The first Europeans arrived in Massachusetts in 1620. They traveled to the New World in search of religious freedom (for themselves; they were not interested in granting religious freedom to anyone else). They intended to land and settle much farther south.
The Mormons did not 'come to' America, they began here. They travelled across the country and eventually left it in search of religious freedom. Shortly after leaving, the territory where they had moved was taken over by America in the Mexican American War and they were once again living on American soil. Nearly 200 years prior to the formation of Mormonism in America, several religious groups came from Europe in search of religious freedom, including the Puritains and the Brethren.
