How did the Reformation contribute to the Europeans' relocation to the Americas?

The main source of European relocation to the Americas as a result of the Reformation was the Puritans. While the Reformation in England began with Anglicanism and the separation of the Church of England from the Catholic Church, for many this was not enough of a radical separation. The radical reformers in England were known as the Puritans, similar in their desire for religious austerity and dissent from the ostentatious Catholic traditions to the Calvinists in Europe.
One group of Puritans led perhaps the most famous migration to the Americas, arriving at Plymouth Rock in 1620 and establishing the colony of Massachusetts. This began a pattern of religious radicals in England fleeing to the American colonies to find new lives and practice their faith free from persecution.
Other groups also played a role. The Huguenots, Protestant dissenters originally hailing from France, also found their way to some of the early American colonies.
