Anglican Catholic Answer!
Nothing is the short answer! Henry didn't do anything to catholics if they didn't change to protestants?
Why should he do that? He was a catholic and both his Church and people were catholics. In fact the Church in England was considered by the Catholic Councils as one of the earliest Churches in Europe, if not the world, outside Jerusalem!
He did do things, as I understand to Protestants who apostacised and left the Catholic Church!
The trouble was that for 500 years there had been a split in the Catholic Church on the subject of the authority of the Bishop of Rome. In the early Church the magisterium had been held amongst the Apostles, in the Acts of the apostles we are shown that ,'eventually,' this authority was expressed by the means of Councils,[Acts 15.]. In Henry's time more and more Catholics were asking how it was that it was the Bishop of Rome who was making the decisions?
For whatever reason, Henry and the Church in England took a decision that supported the claims of the Eastern catholics who had separated from the west in 1054, on this very question. Because he held to the teachings of the early church and the Ecumenical Councils, i.e. the Catholic Faith, the bishop of Rome refused Henry, Communion.
It was Rome who brought new ideas and interpretations in, Henry and the Anglicans stuck by the old ways and held to S. Paul's injunction to 'Keep the Deposit'.

Why did HenryVIII change setup his own religion?
HenryVIII wanted to setup his own church because he didnt like the catholic pope's power and he didnt let Henry have a divorce with his wife, so Henry decided to setup his own church (protestant) and make himself superior head of all protestant churches. Henry of course didn't set up his own religion! He opposed the Bishop of Rome in his attempt to achieve mastery over the Continental Church at that time . This was when Henry and the English Church told the pope that he was breaking the Canons of the early Church!
Why were Catholics banned in the colony of Georgia?
The established church of colonial Georgia was the Church of England, a protestant denomination. Back in England, Catholicism and Protestantism had a history of feuds, a nasty split that began when Martin Luther denounced the Catholic Church for the corruption that plagued it at the time. It makes sense, then, that a predominantly protestant colony like Georgia would discourage Catholics from living there, what with the history between the two religions still so fresh.
What was Georgia's religion in the 1600s?
In the colony of Georgia, there was no specific religion. All religions were welcome, even wanted. The only exception were Roman Catholics, which were not welcomed due to the religious wars fought in England.
