Presentation Transcript


  1. During the reign of Henry VIII (1509-1547), this was the name of the Calvinist reformers who tried to make the Church of England “pure” in terms of the principles of Calvinism.

  2. Puritans

  3. During the reign of James I (1603-1625), some of the Puritans separated from the State-sponsored Church of England and became known as this group.

  4. Separatists

  5. The meetings of the Separatists were held at this manor house and were led by William Brewster. (Two other Separatist leaders were John Robinson and William Bradford.)

  6. Scrooby Manor House

  7. By about 1608, having been persecuted in England, many of the Separatists secretly escaped from England and went to this place in order to obtain religious freedom.

  8. City: Leiden (Leyden) Province: Holland (South Holland, or Zuid-Holland) Country: Kingdom of the Netherlands

  9. Also around 1608, there was a group of English traders who sailed to New Plymouth, Massachusetts in the New World. When the Native Americans came out to trade, the English traders took them as prisoners and brought them to this country to sell them as slaves.

  10. Spain

  11. One of the Native Americans was this young boy. He was “bought” by a Spanish monk who treated him kindly and taught him about Christianity.

  12. Squanto

  13. Some time after fleeing to Holland for religious freedom, eventually the Separatists began to set their hearts and • minds on voyaging to this place. • Their reasons were many, such as: • They experienced economic hardship in Holland; • The Separatist youth were greatly influenced by the • worldliness of the culture of Holland; • The Separatists yearned to fulfill the Great Commission • by establishing a society founded on Scriptural • principles, whereby the new society would shine the • light of Christ to the rest of the world.

  14. New World (North America)

  15. This is the name eventually given to the Separatists (but not until around 1669) due to William Bradford referring to the group as “strangers and pilgrims on the earth” (from Hebrews 11:13) as they planned their voyage to the New World.

  16. Pilgrims

  17. Meanwhile, Squanto eventually went to England where he worked for John Slaney. Slaney found out Squanto yearned to return to his native country, and so agreed to send him home on the first ship sailing to America, which happened in 1618. When Squanto returned to his native land in America, he was heartbroken to find out his entire village (the Patuxet tribe) was wiped out by this.

  18. Epidemic

  19. Back to the Separatists in Holland, representatives were sent from Holland to England to make arrangements with a merchant group to receive financial backing for their travel to the New World, as well as to receive permission to settle on land in North America owned by this company.

  20. The Virginia Company

  21. Needing more colonists for the trip, the Separatists in Holland (who called themselves the “Saints”) agreed to travel to the New World with another group from England. The “Saints” called the other group this name.

  22. “Strangers”

  23. The “Saints” set sail from Holland for England in May of 1620 aboard this ship.

  24. Speedwell

  25. In August of 1620, the Speedwell and this ship set sail from Southampton, England leaving for the New World.

  26. Mayflower

  27. As the Speedwell was not seaworthy, the ships had to return to England twice. Finally, with this captain at the helm, the Mayflower set sail for the New World on her own, with only a portion of the passengers who originally intended to sail to the New World at that time.

  28. Captain Christopher Jones

  29. The Mayflower set sail from Plymouth, England in this month of 1620.

  30. September (Some sources say the date was September 6, 1620, while others say September 16, 1620. The 6th date refers to the Old Style Julian calendar, while the 16th date refers to the New Style Gregorian calendar.)

  31. This is the number of passengers (not including the sailing crew) who set sail for the New World aboard the Mayflower in September of 1620.

  32. 102

  33. Although the conditions aboard the Mayflower were not favorable (crowded, unsanitary, seasickness, storms, etc.), only this many people died during the voyage.

  34. 2 (One passenger plus one crew member died. The passenger was William Butten, a servant of Samuel Fuller. The crew member’s name is not known.)

  35. There were three pregnant women aboard the Mayflower: Elizabeth Hopkins, Susanna White, and Mary Allerton. This is the name of the only child born while voyaging on the Mayflower before landing in the New World.

  36. Oceanus Hopkins (He died in about 1623.)

  37. In November of 1620, the Mayflower first anchored here in the New World.

  38. Provincetown Harbor, MA on Cape Cod (This was obviously not their original destination of Virginia.)

  39. This was the name of the captain who led the exploration of the land to determine where the Pilgrims would settle.

  40. Captain Miles (Myles) Standish (He was an English-born military officer serving in the Netherlands, who befriended the Separatists when they were in Holland. The Separatists eventually asked him to accompany them to the New World as a military advisor.)

  41. This was the name of the area where Captain Miles (Myles) Standish (and the others who were exploring with him) decided to settle.

  42. New Plymouth (This place had been formerly named by Captain John Smith on a previous exploration.)

  43. While anchored in Provincetown Harbor, several of the “Strangers” started making threats of mutiny regarding establishing a new colony. In response to the discord, this document was written while still aboard the Mayflower to establish a form of self-government. The document was not called this name until 1793.

  44. Mayflower Compact (This document was likely penned by William Brewster and was signed by almost all the men present on November 11, 1620 [Old Style calendar]. The date using the New Style calendar would have been November 21, 1620.)

  45. This was the name of the large boulder on which the colonists reportedly first stepped while disembarking from the Mayflower after anchoring in New Plymouth.

  46. Plymouth Rock

  47. Due to harsh conditions (sparse supplies, sickness, winter weather elements without permanent shelter, etc.), this percentage of colonists died the first winter.

  48. 50% (half)

  49. The remaining half of the colonists survived the first winter. In March, this Native American was the first to go meet the colonists.

  50. Samoset (He was a Native American from the Wampanoag tribe who spoke English.)
