False. Roger Williams founded the colony of Rhode Island, not Connecticut. Connecticut was founded by Thomas Hooker and a group of Puritans in 1636. Williams established Rhode Island as a refuge for those seeking religious freedom.
Rodger Williams left Massachusetts and founded a New Colony that eventually would become Rhode Island. The Colony was originally called the Colony of Providence Plantation.
The Puritans expelled Roger Williams because he challenged their religious and political authority, advocating for the separation of church and state as well as criticizing their treatment of Native Americans. Williams also held different religious beliefs, such as rejecting infant baptism and questioning the legitimacy of the colony's land acquisition from Native Americans. These differences led to his banishment from the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1636.
NEW ANSWER:Roger Williams was the pastor of the church of Salem in Massachusetts. Because of his beliefs which included:The colonists should pay the Indians for the land they now have. Also, the church should be free from all evil ~ including interference of the government.Williams was thrown out of Massachusetts, in 1635. In 1636, he founded the colony of Rhode Island, in. The following spring, his congregation from Salem joined him.
The most distinctive feature of the Rhode Island Colony was that it allowed freedom of religion. When Rhode Island was founded, all of the other colonies in America all had established churches.
Providence was the name of the colony that Williams found.
