I assume you are inquiring about The Puritans. This term was used to describe members of the Church of England, who wished to purify it of all semblances to the Roman Catholic Church, in particular to the lithurgy, vestments, and episcopal hierarchy. A radical minority within the Puritan movement, The Separatists, wanted to remove itself from the English church and worship in its own independent congregation. Those Puritans who did sail to the United States in 1630 mantained they were not separatists but wanted to purify the Church of England by establishing their own "city upon a hill." By the end of the 17th century, puritan political influence had largely disappeared in Massachusetts, though attitudes associated with it remained.

The Pilgrims broke away from the Church of England that King Henry instituted. They were persecuted for their beliefs and that they did not attend the Church of England. By the time the Pilgrims broke away from the church, King James was ruling. Some of these "Separatists" went to Holland. They lived there until they felt the Dutch were a bad influence. And again, some of those separatists left for America. These Separatists then made their "pilgrimage" (journey) to America. Today these Puritans/Religious Dessenters/Separatists are called the Pilgrims.
