The Anabaptists were different from both their Protestant and Catholic brothers and often found themselves persecuted by other Christians. Many Anabaptists were [[martyr]]ed during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. They would survive the persecution, and added to their numbers, and some eventually migrated to North America. The most numerous Anabaptist immigrants were [[Mennonite]]s who took their name from an early Dutch Anabaptist leader named [[Menno Simons]]. The Amish and the [[Hutterites]] were two other Anabaptist groups that migrated to North America.  The [[Brethren in Christ Church]] <ref>http://www.bic-church.org/about/history.asp The Brethren in Christ Church Official Website</ref> is a Christian church in the Anabaptist tradition.
