you do not capitalize colonial.
you want
colonial New England
colonial America
colonial is an adjective that is describing New England. the N in New and E in England are capitalized because they are together, a proper noun, and all proper nouns are capitalized

If colonial is being used as part of a title or noun, yes. if it's an adjective, no.

I think that's a good question. I think I would, but I'm not sure why.
