Yes, because they didn't want to be Dutch. They wanted to be English and free to practice their faith.
Pretty much, yes. They were Nonconformists who didn't want to attend services in the Established church, which they considered too popish.
Why were they in the Netherlands
I am worri3d about the puritans, and how they ended up in the netherlands
