William Penn was the founder of the colony of Pennsylvania. King Charles II had a large loan with the father of William and after the father's death, he granted William a big portion of land in the American territory. William called Sylvania, Latin for "woods." Penn belonged to the Religious Society of Friends or the Quakers.
