king phillip's war... :p
He stopped the war between the Puritans and the Native Americans.
Jonathon Calvert of England founded the colony of Massachusetts for religious freedom. Puritans were telling them to leave, so they moved to Asia and left behind a colonial war between the states.
Separatist Puritans believed in completely separating from the Church of England and forming their own independent congregations. Non-separatist Puritans, on the other hand, wanted to reform the Church of England from within. Ultimately, the Pilgrims who settled in Plymouth were Separatist Puritans, while the Puritans who settled in Massachusetts Bay Colony were mostly non-separatists.
John Winthrop,governor of the Puritans, established the Massachusetts bay colony
Other than farming and hunting as sources of food, I can't think of any.
Captain John Smith, an experienced soldier, managed to get corn the local Native Americans led by Chief Powhatan. In August 1609, 400 hundred new settlers arrived . The winter of 1609-1610 became known as the "starving time". Fighting broke out with the Native Americans.
As one of the first American colonies, the Massachusetts Bay Colony was officially chartered for the sake of trade between the New World and the Old. At the same time, though secretly, it was organized as a refuge for religious separatists, known as Puritans, who protested many of the practices of the official English church and were in turn often persecuted by the same.
No, there was not a clear separation of church and state in the English colony. For instance, only Puritans could vote in the original colony. Their charter was revoked, and they were grouped with other areas into a province, and voting was extended to non-Puritans in 1691.
The headquarters of the Massachusetts Bay Company was moved to Massachusetts in the 1630s. Presumeably the directors brought all of the official records with them. therefore I would try the state archives in Boston as a starting point. Michael Montagne
There was no war with the Puritans. They followed a doctrine of peace and made peace with the Natives they met. If you are asking about the British colonist there were problems from the very start. You have to realize that not all colonist were Puritan's There was only one colony of the sect.
do puritans view man as inherently good evil or somewhere in between ?
Rowlandson's dehumanizing descriptions of the Native Americans serve to justify her own actions and the actions of the Puritans towards them. By depicting them as savage and evil, it reinforces the idea that the Puritans are the righteous and superior group. It also serves to create a sense of fear and otherness towards the Native Americans, helping to solidify the divide between the two groups.
