Detailed explanation-1: -The settlers at Jamestown were members of the Anglican faith, the official Church of England. The Pilgrims were dissenters from the Church of England and established the Puritan or Congregational Church.
Detailed explanation-2: -1. How were New England settlements different from Virginia settlements? New England’s strong religious values restricted settlement far from the center of town, while Virginia’s pursuit of wealth pushed settlers to the coast, and away from others.
Detailed explanation-3: -How did the Pilgrims’ experience with the Indians differ markedly from that of settlers in Virginia? Pilgrims were friendly to the Indians. Indians taught them how to gather, hunt, and cultivate. Pilgrims marked the alliance with Thanksgiving in 1621.
Detailed explanation-4: -Virginia was founded primarily for economic reasons while Massachusetts was settled by people seeking religious freedom and self-determination. The difference in their locations also made a difference.
