The Pilgrims worshipped God, at least they tried to. They were being hunted really by betrayers in the government. At first they were living in England, but they left England to move to Holland. In Holland they could worship God the way they wanted to. The King of England, James the 1st, was a bad man. He hung some of the Pilgrims and using that rope that would tighter each millisecond. So their bodies would drop and their neck would snap, or they would just suffocate.

The Pilgrims left England and went to Holland. But the children had to work and once child died from his job. He was a 7 year old kid. He was carrying something and the weight of the two things and pushed his body down. Children of the Pilgrims had to work so they could have money for food. That way they wouldn't be useless.

The parents of the children, the Pilgrim parents, got upset that their children were starting to act like children who grew up in Holland. They didn't like this. They were afraid their children wouldn't grow up to worship Jehovah. They did not want their children to become worldly. So they left Holland to go back to England to catch a ride on a ship called the Mayflower.
