Pennsylvania, under the leadership of William Penn, offered settlers significant religious freedom in the 1700s. Penn founded the colony as a safe haven for Quakers and other religious minorities, promoting religious tolerance and free practice of religion.
William Penn was actually opposed to most commonly held religious beliefs in his youth but discovered that the beliefs of the "Society of Friends" resembled his own beliefs to the extent that he did join them. The Society of Friends is also known as the Quakers. Like many people in his day, he came to what is now the US to be free to practice his religion the way he saw fit. The Quakers have remained prevalent in many areas of Pennsylvania even to this day.
Some Quakers hid Jews, but the Quakers did not organize some swoop of the camps.
