In the colony of Virginia the Anglican (Episcopalian) religion was the official religion and was supported through taxation. However, there were other religions. Patrick Henry was a Presbyterian. Thomas Jefferson wrote that a number of Jews lived in Virginia. A number of Baptists also lived there. Daniel Boone was in the Virginia Legislature and was a Baptist. (His father had been kicked out of a Quaker Church in Pennsylvania!)
