Mary Dyer: A Colonial Execution

This is an excellent site about Puritans.

Mary Dyer was a Quaker. This website, "The Religious Society of Friends," explains the history of the Quakers and their beliefs.

"Mary Dyer - Abiding Faith Brings Death on Gallows"

Thomas Welde, a contemporary of Anne Hutchinson, wrote about her beliefs in a work called "The Heresies of Anne Hutchinson and Her Followers." It is quoted, among other places, in Woman's Life in Colonial Days. See, particularly, section VII (Female Rebellion) in chapter 1.

The Library of Congress web site includes an article on Mary Dyer. Part of its American Memory collection, see the entry for July 20th at "Today in History."
