Nathaniel Hawthorne’s classic The Scarlet Letter is set in the 1600s (written around 1850). Modern author: Caleb’s Crossing by Geraldine Brooks is written from the perspective of a woman leaving Puritan Boston for Martha’s Vineyard, also 1600s.

Why not The Scarlet Letter?

Slewfoot by Brom. It is a witch trial novel set in the 1600s.
North Woods by Daniel Mason goes from the 1600s to present day but mostly not the present day.
Frozen River by Ariel Lawhon is set in pre-Revolutionary Maine (then part of Massachusetts).
