Roger Williams and Anne Hutchinson were the earliest.
The conflict between Puritan leaders and Anne Hutchinson arose primarily from her religious beliefs and challenges to the established Puritan orthodoxy. Hutchinson advocated for a direct personal relationship with God and emphasized the importance of individual revelation, which undermined the authority of the Puritan clergy. Additionally, her outspoken criticism of the ministers and her gatherings of women discussing theological issues threatened the social order and the patriarchal structure of the Puritan society. Ultimately, these factors led to her trial and banishment from the Massachusetts Bay Colony.
