The former tenant farmer who had been forced off the land and was looking for work in England's cities would be the most likely to migrate to the New World in search of better economic opportunities. Acceptance of Calvinist theology was also a common motivation for migration to the New World, as many sought religious freedom and the ability to establish their own communities based on their religious beliefs. The other options, such as the titled aristocrat or wealthy merchant, were less likely to migrate as they had established wealth and social status in England. The member of the landed gentry who had recently combined small land units into a large estate may also be less likely to migrate as they had invested in land and had a stable source of income.
