Quakers had their own colony - Pennsylvania, and they often settled in Rhode Island, but they were persecuted in Massachussets so both C and A are wrong.

The Puritans settled mostly in New England, so the correct answer is D.

For example, the Massachussets Bay Colony and Connecticut were to a great degree established by the Puritans.
