1631- First Baptist Church in America
From Today in Christian History by Studylight.org:
1631 - English clergyman Roger Williams first arrived in America. He soon began questioning Massachusetts' religious policies which fused church and state matters. Williams was banished to Rhode Island five years later, where at Providence he established the first Baptist church in America.
