Excerpt from Massachusetts: A Typical American Commonwealth The cradle of Massachusetts history was discovered within the memory of living men. Under the carved oaken beams of the Manor House at Scrooby, in the northern part of Nottinghamshire, England, about 1604, the Pilgrim Church was born. Here, on the banks of the Idle, gathered farmers, artisans, and laborers from the three counties of Nottingham, Lincoln, and York. The bond of a common religious faith held them together. John Robinson, their spiritual teacher, was nobly assisted by William Brewster, the Elder of the congregation, and by William Bradford, then a young man, but with great business and administrative abilities.
