The Pilgrim Adventure

The Pilgrims planned to leave their homeland early in the spring of 1620, but there were lots of delays. By the time they got the king's permission to establish a colony and arranged for ships and supplies, it was late August and many of the Pilgrims decided not to go.

The company that was paying for the trip needed more colonists so other people, who were called "Strangers" by the Pilgrims, went in search of wealth and adventure. Today, the entire group who settled at Plymouth is known as the Pilgrims.
