Providence, R. L, was founded In
1638 by Roger Williams, who
bought a tract of land from the
Narragansett sachems and built a
house at the confluence of the
Moshassuck and Woonasquatucket
rivers, and with a few followers
set up a town government In 1637.
after a few more settlers had ar
rived, the plantation covenant was
adopted embodying a complete sep
