I'm pretty sure that the official religion was Anglicanism, but there were a number of different religious sects existing in New Jersey at different times before the Revolution. For example, as New Jersey was originally settled by the Dutch, there were a number of "Dutch Reformed" followers. Also, there were many Congregationalists (aka Puritans) who had migrated there from New England.
