Roger Williams was famous as a leader of the Rhode Island Colony. Roger Williams was a Puritan dissident and theologian who left England to migrate to the New World. He was a supporter of religious freedom and the separation of church and state. In 1636(one thousand six hundred and thirty-six) his strong views clashed with those of John Winthrop, the governor of Massachusetts who banished him from the strictly Puritan colony. Roger Williams fled the Massachusetts Colony and established a colony for religious dissidents, which later became the state of Rhode Island. Rhode Island earned the nickname of 'Rogue Island' due to its mixture of settlers from all religious backgrounds.

Anne Hutchinson was famous as one of the early colonists of the Massachusetts Colony who was banished from Boston in 1637 (one thousand six hundred and thirty-seventh ) for her religious and feminist beliefs and fled to the Rhode Island Colony.
