The document provides an overview of Amish Americans, including their history, beliefs, and practices. It discusses how the Amish are descended from Anabaptists in Europe and faced religious persecution. Many Amish immigrated to Pennsylvania and Ohio in the 1700s-1800s for economic and religious reasons. Their beliefs emphasize humility, separation from the world, and plain dress and language. Teens may experience mainstream culture during Rumspringa before committing to the church. While the Amish try to separate from technology, some adopt modern conveniences depending on their congregation's Ordnung. Tourism both benefits and challenges Amish communities.Quakers As Pacifists
Quakers As PacifistsPeggy Johnson
油
The document discusses Quakers as pacifists during World War I. Many young Quaker men had to decide how to balance their religious beliefs as pacifists with their duty as citizens during a time of war. This challenged them to clearly define what it meant to be part of a pacifist religious community while also being part of the larger American nation. Though they took different approaches to service, these individuals were united in their desire to contribute meaningfully to institutions and ideals larger than themselves.Pennsylvania, midwest, and german faith

The Middle Colonies of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Delaware were home to diverse religious and ethnic groups including the Dutch, Swedes, Germans, Quakers, Scots-Irish, and various Native American tribes. William Penn founded Pennsylvania in 1681 and sought religious toleration for all, good relations with Native Americans, and encouraged German immigration. The Middle Colonies became the most ethnically and religiously diverse region in the American colonies due to its policy of religious freedom and attraction of diverse immigrant groups.Middle colonies-founding

The document summarizes the settlement of the Northern colonies by Puritans in the 17th century. It describes the origins and beliefs of Puritanism stemming from the Protestant Reformation. Puritans established colonies like Plymouth and Massachusetts Bay to practice their religion freely. However, religious dissenters like Anne Hutchinson and Roger Williams were banished for their radical beliefs. Tensions also arose with local Native American tribes, leading to conflicts like the Pequot War. By the 1630s, the Puritan colonies of New England were established. editpastoriusfinalpaper

Francis Daniel Pastorius was a highly educated German aristocrat who founded Germantown, Pennsylvania in 1683. He studied at four universities in Germany, becoming fluent in many languages. In America, he organized the German settlers, served as a teacher and civic leader, and drafted the first protest against slavery. Pastorius worked to help the settlers adapt to their new home while maintaining their German heritage. He played a pivotal role in the development of Germantown.Thomas Bennett and Ann Lacey

Thomas Bennett and Ann Lacey Bennett were English pioneers who immigrated to America and Utah in the 1800s. Thomas was born in 1815 in England and Ann was born in 1819, also in England. They were married in 1839 and had seven children in England before immigrating. Thomas came to America first in 1857 to prepare for the family, working and saving money. Their son William joined him in 1860. In 1861, Ann and the remaining children immigrated and traveled by train and wagon to Utah to reunite with Thomas. Ann and Thomas helped establish settlements in Utah and Idaho and contributed to their communities until Thomas' death in 1881 and Ann's in 1907.Ad
