Excerpt from The Conkling Prosch Family: With Some Reference to the Dotter, Roe, Reynolds, Brooks, Mapes, Elder, McCarver and Other Connections

The Massachusetts Colony included in its aims not only the settlement of the country. And incidentally the creation of trade and the making of money, but the religious welfare of the people as well. The fishing business was making headway. And it was thought to be a duty to keep the Church close to those engaged in it. In a broader way it was hoped also to benefit the Indians, among whom it was intended to do missionary work. To which the Company was further enjoined by the explicit terms of the Charter itself.

The people who came in the first days of Plymouth, Salem and Boston were substantially all Puritans. To some have been also given the additional name of Pilgrims.
