The Dutch and the Swedes were the first white settlers in the area that became New Jersey. When the British took over control of the colony, the King gave control of the colony to his brother, the Duke of York, who in turn gave the colony to his two friends, Lord Berkeley and Sir George Carteret. They allowed settlers religious and political freedom in the colony, so many different groups settled the area. The early religious groups were Anglican, Puritan, Quaker, and Calvinist.

In 1607 and 1609, several groups of Separatists settled in the New World, specifically in the area that would become Virginia. The most notable group, the English Pilgrims, established the Plymouth Colony in 1620 after initially settling in Leiden, Netherlands. Prior to that, the Jamestown settlement was founded in 1607 by the Virginia Company, marking the first permanent English settlement in North America. These settlements were driven by the desire for religious freedom and economic opportunities.
