Many English people who disagreed with the Church of England, particularly during the 16th and 17th centuries, sought religious freedom by migrating to other regions. A significant number became Puritans and settled in North America, establishing colonies like Massachusetts Bay. Others moved to the Netherlands or to other parts of Europe where they could practice their faith without persecution. These migrations were driven by a desire for a more reformed worship and governance that aligned with their beliefs.

Is it true people in England had to pay taxes to support the church of England?
Yes, historically, people in England were required to pay taxes to support the Church of England. This was part of the established church system, where the church was funded through a tax called tithes, which was typically one-tenth of a person's income. This practice was formalized after the English Reformation in the 16th century when the Church of England broke away from the Roman Catholic Church. While the obligation to pay tithes has diminished over time, the relationship between church and state has remained significant in England.
