Answer:

C) Some separate from the Church of England and feared punishment by English leaders.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the storybook version most of us learned in school, the Pilgrims came to America aboard the Mayflower in search of religious freedom in 1620. The Puritans soon followed, for the same reason. ... More than half a century before the Mayflower set sail, French pilgrims had come to America in search of religious freedom.
