Thomas Hooker was an English Puritan minister who emigrated to the New World in 1633. He left England due to growing dissatisfaction with the Church of England and a desire for greater religious freedom. Hooker initially settled in the Massachusetts Bay Colony, but later led a group of followers to found Hartford, Connecticut, where he established a more democratic government. His journey symbolizes the quest for religious and political liberty in early America.
