Speedwell, carried them to England, there they joined another group
of Separatists and the voyagers regrouped at Plymouth aboard the
Mayflower.

passengers, men, women and children—the group was made up of
Separatists and “Strangers” (non-Separatists).

Cod, in present day Massachusetts. Unable to reach Northern
Virginia, the land they had contracted for, they anchored at the site of
Provincetown. They had no legal right to settle in the region, so they
drew up the Mayflower Compact, creating their own government.
