Lord Baltimore was a Catholic. therefore, when he founded Maryland, it was legal to be a Catholic there, unlike the other colonies. You had to belong to the state religion of England (Anglican) or the Puritan church. Therefore Maryland was a safe haven for Catholic immigrants to the New World, for a while at least.
It began with Catholic settlers who named the colony after Queen Mary, the Catholic daughter of King Henry VIII's first wife, Catherine of Aragon (Spain), and then gradually became more homogeneous, with other Christian sects rapidly populating the colony.
