This would have been when the first coal fields were found and developed. Coal was certainly exploited before oil or natural gas. The early colonists would have relied on wood which was abundant, for cooking and keeping warm in the winter. I'm not sure if any coal was found in New England however or whether that depended on getting further inland. I suppose small amounts of coal might have been brought from England by sea, but only for iron working and other tasks like that. By making and using charcoal you can get some iron work done. This is a history topic rather than an energy one.
