Squanto was first take to England by George Weymouth (an Eglishman) in 1605, but this may not technically be ocnsidered a kidnapping. it is possible that Squanto went with him voluntarily as it was Weymouth's intention to show off Squanto (and four others of his tribe) as examples of the exciting things to be found in the New World

Squanto did not like England. He was terribly homesick and he returned to North America where he was captured in 1614 by Thomas Hunt (another Englishman). This was definely a kidnapping as Squanto was purposefully on his way to his home, and Hunt was intending to sell native into slavery in Spain.
