Was a Pilgrim a Puritan?

Pilgrims were Puritans, albeit a specific kind. In the 17th century, many people felt that the Church of England should get rid of all traces of the Roman Catholic Church, which it had broken away from, that the Church should be "purified". These people were called Puritans.

There was a group of Puritans who were even more extreme, they said that the Church of England was too corrupt to ever be purified, and that Puritans should completely separate from it. These people were called separatists. A group of separatists finally left the Church and England altogether, and moved to Holland.

However, they feared that their children were becoming "too Dutch", so they left Holland and set up a colony in the New World, Plymouth. These people were the Pilgrims.
