Plymouth was founded by the Puritans in 1620. The Quakers began taking form as a religious society in about 1640.

WHAT ARE THE QUAKERS HOLiDAYS?
the quakers.
No Quakers don't take communion.
The Quakers believe in pacifism and nonviolence as core principles of their faith. Some Quakers actively engage in social justice and community service work as a way to live out their values. We met a group of Quakers at a peaceful protest advocating for environmental conservation.
The Quakers were mistreated in England because of their religious beliefs.
Quakers are indeed Christians!
how did the Quakers get started
Quakers are a largely liberal denomination, and although not all Quakers are of one mind about this (there is division over this issue), generally speaking Quakers are one of the most LGBT-accepting of the older Christian denominations out there. On the east coast, Quakers tend to be less structured, often somewhat less strictly Bible/Christianity-centric and more liberal and accepting of gays, but in other parts of America, Quakerism takes on a more structured form and may be less accepting of LGBT folk.
state claimed by the quakers
