The goals of the Separatists who settled in Plymouth Colony in 1620 were to find a safe place to escape the persecution they had faced in Europe. They came to the New World in search of a new life.
True. Pilgrims were separatists, however not all separatists were Pilgrims.

The Separatists firstly settled in Plymouth :)
the Separatists
Thomas Morton viewed the Separatists as narrow-minded and authoritarian, criticizing their strict religious beliefs and practices. He found them to be intolerant of others who did not conform to their beliefs, leading to tensions and conflict within the community.
Both Puritans and Separatists were Protestant groups who emerged during the English Reformation. The main difference is that Separatists sought to completely break away from the Church of England, while Puritans wanted to reform it from within. Both groups emphasized the importance of leading a moral and holy life, but Separatists were more extreme in their beliefs and practices.
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.
They were a mixture of Puritans and Separatists. These groups were Protestant Christians that were opposed to the Anglican state church of England.
Puritans sought to reform the Church of England from within, while Separatists wanted to completely separate from it. Puritans believed in a hierarchical church structure, whereas Separtists advocated for congregational autonomy. Puritans aimed for a more moderate approach to reform, while Separatists were more radical in their beliefs.

The Puritans differed from the Separatists in that they believed that they could purify their religion without separating themselves from the established Church, while the Separatists believed that in order to purify their religion, they needed to leave the Church.
New York was very similar to Massachusetts, but under a slight influence from Pennsylvania, in terms of religion, it was a colony where Separatists (Pilgrims), Quakers and Puritans established their respective beliefs.
the separatists came to America on the Mayflower.
