George Calvert started the colony of Maryland. He wanted Catholics to have a colony. Not sure if I'm right though :P
The charter for the colony of Maryland was granted to George Calvert Baron of Baltimore. He died, however, before the colony was settled. His son, Cecil Calvert or more commonly know as Lord Baltimore, saw to it that the colony was settled. In 1633, the first group of settlers sailed for the colony led by Leonard Calvert, Cecil Calvert's younger brother.
