The Pilgrims left areas in the Netherlands and came to America to find a better life where they were free to practice their own religion. Along with the Pilgrims, came the Puritans and the Quakers.

The Puritans--the Separatist branch--left England in stages. They were specifically opposed to the replacement of the Pope with the King--they believed that The Bible was the ultimate authority and that people should interpret it themselves. After living in Holland for about ten years with hardships, they returned to England to obtain the backing of the Virginia Company in order to colonize Plymouth and return to their basic beliefs. They were not of the same beliefs as the Puritans who settled in Massachusetts.

Is the Dutch colony part of the Pilgrims?

AnswerYes The dutch is another name for pilgrims. They came to America for religious freedom. Actually the Dutch Colony was not a part of the Pilgrims that colonized America. The Dutch established the colony of New Netherland - which is New York today.The Pilgrims were very strict with who lived in their colony and only allowed people who worshipped and believed as they did. There are several examples of individuals who were kicked out the the Pilgrim colony and they ended up living in New Netherland because the Dutch colony was very ethnically diverse, welcoming everyone.
