Final answer:

The Quakers were led by William Penn and received the right to settle in Pennsylvania in 1681.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct information about the Quakers is:

  1. They were led by William Penn
  2. The Quakers received the right to settle in Pennsylvania in 1681

William Penn, a Quaker himself, played a significant role in the establishment of Pennsylvania as a Quaker colony. He obtained a royal charter in 1681 and led the Quakers in their migration to the region. Therefore, options 2 and 3 are correct. The other options, naming the region in honor of his son and Pennsylvania's main city being Pittsburgh, are incorrect.
