Brief Explanations

For question 9: Roger Williams founded Rhode Island after being banished from Massachusetts Bay Colony, advocating for religious freedom. William Penn founded Pennsylvania, Thomas Hooker founded Connecticut, and Anne Hutchinson was a religious dissident associated with early New England but not the founder of Rhode Island.
For question 10: The Society of Friends is the official name for the Quaker religious group, which William Penn was part of when establishing Pennsylvania as a haven for religious tolerance. Catholics, Puritans, and Proprietors do not match this religious group's alternative name.

Answer:

  1. D. Roger Williams
