colony quakers settled in?

Answer 1

There were Quakers in Massachusetts, but they were usually persecuted and executed by the Puritans.

In Maryland, Quakers were welcomed by the Calverts, who were the proprietors of the colony, which was established as a haven for English Catholics; later, William Penn's colony of Pennsylvania was founded as a refuge for Quakers. Like Maryland, it was a proprietary colony, and, also like its neighbor to the south, religious toleration was a feature of it.

The southern part of New Jersey--notably the areas that now form Salem, Burlington, Camden, and Gloucester Counties--was also home to a large Quaker population.

Rhode Island was another place Quakers found refuge. Like Maryland and Pennsylvania, tolerance for differing religious viewpoints was a hallmark of this colony as well.
