They were a group of people who practiced Calvinism, and they were unsatified with the Church of England saying that it was still too much like the Roman Catholic Church. So they decided to separate from the Church of England but King James I didn't approve and they persecuted. So they decided to go to America and settle around the Chesapeake Bay area. So they got a ship the infamous Mayflower and they set sail, but they were hit by a terrible storm and were blown off course and they landed in what is present day Massachusetts founding the Plymouth Colony.
