The Calvert family founded the Maryland Colony in the early 17th century. Led by Cecil Calvert, the second Lord Baltimore, they established the colony in 1632 as a refuge for English Catholics facing persecution. The Calverts promoted religious tolerance and diverse settlement, which contributed to Maryland's unique character in colonial America.
