The story of the origins of the first Anglican congregation
established in Boston and New England, Kings Chapel, is
significantly shaped by the gradually emerging imperial policies of
the government of Charles II during the late seventeenth century.
It is a transatlantic account influenced largely by two forces, one
in London, driven by the members of the Board of Trade and
Plantations, and the other in Boston, driven by a handful of
merchants with active and productive commercial ties with London
and Bristol trading firms. Extending the Church of England to
Puritan Boston after the revocation in 1684 of the Massachusetts
Bay Colony's first charter and the creation of the province as a
royal jurisdiction was received reluctantly by the town's
residents, who considered it a novel, abrupt, and unwanted
political and ecclesiastical act. This was not merely the extension
of a religious group from the Old World to the New, for the Church
of England was granted great political and cultural authority
through the laws of England's unwritten constitution.
