The second person personal pronouns: Nominative singular: Thou Nominative plural: Ye Objective singular: Thee Objective plural: You Dating from the Middle Ages in England, the plural form for the second person pronoun began to be used to show respect to superiors, then for equals as a courtesy. As the new world became inhabited by English settlers, these pronouns came with them. Eventually, this practice fell into disuse (perhaps a sign of an evolving culture) except in certain communities in England and Pennsylvania, and among the Quakers. By the beginning of the 20th century, the use of the singular/plural forms had almost disappeared with the exception of some very rural communities and the Quakers. Today, the second person 'you' is used for singular and plural, subjective and objective.
