Research that irrelevant question yourself, what we do know for a flat out fact, is that Catholics did come to the British colonies in large numbers and were not here in large numbers at the founding of America, and were in fact about 1% of the population.

You don’t accept the history, not even from Catholic universities or encyclopedias or any history at all, so continue to live in your imagination.

What we know is that pretty much all the Catholics in England and Wales were Cavaliers. At the conclusion of the English Civil War, the Cavaliers left. They overwhelmingly went to Maryland and Virginia. Given the overt religious discrimination at time its hardly surprising many were not exactly open about their faith. Look up for example the term “priest hole”.
