Abstract
For Quaker families, the religious freedom the colony offers is reason enough to come. Quaker women often travel as "public friends" or missionaries, a practice that is frowned upon by Puritans. Quaker settlers do not believe in killing; in fact there is no blood shed in New Jersey or Pennsylvania for the 70 years they are in control. Their commitment to fairness in dealing with the Indians is eroded as waves of land-hungry Scotch-Irish and German immigrants flood into the area in the early 18th century.
