American Puritans strove for over 100 years. James threatened to kill all those who refused to conform to the Church of England. Some members of the Church of England wanted to make the Protestant Reformation a part of people?s everyday life and get rid of all evidence of the Catholic Church. These people were called Puritans. In 190__ the Puritans fled to Holland. They didn?t stay very long, only a few years, because they found their kids were growing up Dutch, not English. So, they got a land grant from the Virginia Company of London to come to America. About 100 Puritans (Pilgrims) sailed from Plymouth England on the Mayflower, and dropped anchor in Massachusetts. This was a little off course, they were supposed to land in Virginia.
