Pilgrims

The Pilgrims were early European settlers of the Plymouth Colony in present-day Plymouth, Massachusetts, United States. The Pilgrims' story became a central theme of the history and culture of the United States - mainly surrounding the holiday of Thanksgiving. 
As they migrated due to their desire to separate from the Church of England, they are often depicted in Puritan costume with black flat topped hat with a large buckle. However, the original colonists included individuals outside of the religious group, such as Myles Standish and John Alden.
