Massachusetts Bay Colony
By Lauren Ayube
In 1630, about ten years after the Pilgrims traveled to the New World, a group of people called the Puritans made their own voyage from England. They traveled to find a place where they could set up their own church and run it their own way. Led by a man named John Winthrop, the Puritans settled near what would become Boston. They called it the Massachusetts Bay Colony.
