provide guidelines for the government of a colony
The Mayflower Compact was a document of the Plymouth Colony. It is best described as a step toward genuine self-government.
New York was begun as a Dutch Colony in 1624, a proprietary colony of the Dutch West Indies Company. It was originally the colony of New Netherlands and New York City was originally New Amsterdam. The original Director-General of the colony was Cornellis Jacobzoon May, who was soon succeeded by Willem Verhulst. The best remembered though is the third Director-General, Peter Minuit, who served from 1626-32. It was Minuit who supposedly made the legendary purchase of Manhattan Island for trade goods worth $24. The British took over New York in 1664 as part of the Peace settlement following an Anglo-Dutch war.
Though I am not able to cite references at this time, the best guess would be yes because it was a British colony and the imperial homeland (Great Britan) wanted to protect it.
The colony of Delaware split off from Pennsylvania. Geographically, it had been shut off from the rest of the colony. Because of this, future-Delaware's inhabitants had very little say in Pennsylvania's representative government. They decided that it would be best that they simply establish their own government, so they became Delaware.
