2. Do you think this is a good place for a colony?

3. Plymouth settlers Plymouth was the site of the colony founded in 1620 by the Pilgrims, passengers of the famous ship the Mayflower. Prior to the arrival of the Pilgrims, the location of Plymouth was a village of 2,000 Native Americans called Patuxet Plymouth was established by Anglicans and English separatists who had broken away from the Church of England. Today, these settlers are much better known as "Pilgrims", a term coined by William Bradford.

6. Anne Hutchinson Fled England in 1633 for Massachusetts with her husband William and their 11 children. Ultimately came to America for religious freedom.

9. Mary Dyer

10. Mary Dyer • Mary was an English Puritan turned Quaker. • In late 1634, the Dyers emigrated to Massachusetts, where William Dyer took the Oath of a Freeman at the General Court in Boston on March 3, 1635. • They were admitted to the Boston Church on December 13, 1635. • In 1637, the Dyers became open supporters of Anne Hutchinson, who preached that God "spoke directly to individuals" rather than only through the clergy.

11. Mary Dyer After being kicked out of Plymouth, The Dyers ultimately settled in Newport, Rhode Island. Mary was dissatisfied with Rhode Island life, and traveled alone to England in 1650, where she joined the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) after hearing the preaching of its founder, George Fox. Her 1657 return to New England was ill-timed; John Endicott had succeeded Winthrop as Governor in 1649, and was far more intolerant of religious dissension.

12. Mary Dyer When Mary's ship landed in Boston, she was immediately arrested. Her husband secured her release nearly three months later, on account of his prominent social status in Rhode Island, on the condition that William "give his honor" that Mary would never return to Massachusetts. Although Mary did go back to Massachusetts numerous times and was arrested. On her third trip back she was caught, arrested, and hung to death.
