Answer 3

1634 was when the settlement of St Mary's was created and I think it had colonial status. If not right away they did by 1635 but I think colony status may be been given as early as 1632 and it wasn't acted on until 1634.

Answer 4

Maryland became a state in 1776. Europeans explored present-day Maryland in the 1400s, but Native Americans had been living there a long time before that.

Answer 5

George Calvert, the Lord Baltimore was granted a charter from the English King on June 20, 1632. That is the day that most consider the beginning of the colony of Maryland.
