Maryland Industries
Tobacco was the most important crop in early Maryland, but grain was raised in many parts of the colony.
In time, also, there grew up a large trading town.
This was Baltimore.
Its shipowners and merchants became rich and numerous, while there were almost no shipowners or merchants in Virginia.
There were also fewer slaves in Maryland than in Virginia.
Nearly all the hard labor in the former colony was done by white servants.
In most other ways, however, Virginia and Maryland were nearly alike.
The New England colonies were founded by English Puritans who left England because they could not do as they wished in the homeland.
All Puritans were agreed in wishing for a freer government than they had in England under the Stuart Kings, and, in state matters, were really the liberals of their time.
In religious matters, however, they were not all of one mind.
Some of them wished to make only a few changes in the church.
These were called non-conformists.
Others wished to make so many changes in religion that they could not stay in the English state church.
These were called separatists.
The settlers of Plymouth were separatists.
The settlers of Boston and neighboring towns were nonconformists.
Forty-three, the pilgrims.
Of all the groups of the separatists scattered over England, none became so famous as those who met at Elder Brewster's house at Scrooby.
