Who received the charter for the colony of maryland?

Cecílio Calvert

Explanation:

George Calvert, First Lord of Baltimore. A talented English business leader and a friend of Kings James I and Charles I, Calvert converted to Catholicism in 1624.

Catholicism cost him a seat in Parliament and his state office, but he willingly renounced them because he believed very strongly in the truths of the Church. His attractive personality also helped him to retain favor in the royal court. This proved to be crucial, since Calvert soon felt the harsh criminal laws against Catholics and he undertook to help his fellow believers. The help was through a colony in the New World.

Undaunted, Calvert asked for a charter to start a colony in northern Virginia, but he died in April 1632. A few months later, on June 20, 1632, a charter for the Maryland Colony was awarded to his son, Cecílio Calvert, Second Lord of Baltimore. The colony was named in honor of the queen of Carlos I, Henriqueta Maria.
