Question:

Who Was the First European Settler in Boston?

¿Quién fue el primer colono europeo en Boston?

Reverendo William Blaxton (también escrito Blackstone) fue el primer europeo en asentarse en lo que hoy es Boston. Él llegó por primera vez en 1625 y estableció su hogar en Boston Common y Beacon Hill. Sin embargo, no pasó mucho tiempo antes de que él estaba compartiendo la meseta central de la península de Shawmut con los puritanos. Su asentamiento al norte de Boston no estaba trabajando para ellos, por lo que William les invitó a quedarse cerca de él. Desafortunadamente para William, los puritanos eran más estrictos en sus creencias espirituales que él. Reverendo Blaxton rápidamente se mudó de Boston hacia el sur para poder evitar la tiranía puritana.

Se rumorea que los puritanos no estaban de acuerdo con tal fuerza con el reverendo anglicano que habían incendiado su casa. Blaxton les vendió sus propiedades antes de dirigirse hacia el sur. Todo salió a su favor en términos de legado. Reverendo Blaxton se convirtió en el primer colono europeo de lo que ahora es Rhode Island en los cinco años invitando a los puritanos de compartir la península de Shawmut con él.
