It's just Catholic, not Roman Catholic. Roman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is never used by the official Catholic Church.

Maryland was established as a colony for persecuted Catholics, however, it didn't work out very well, as the protestants in the colony kept up the persecution.
