Hi Kendall,
I think you can find answers to this at some of the history-themed websites. For example
http://www.sparknotes.com/testprep/books/sat2/history/chapter5section5.rhtml
http://education-portal.com/academy/lesson/13-colonies-colonial-life-economics-politics.html
http://www.ask.com/question/what-was-life-like-in-the-1600s
http://www.metmuseum.org/toah/hd/recu/hd_recu.htm
You'll have some reading to do, but I think you will find plenty of ways that life was different.
Hope this helps you.
