Notes
Ann Burt, a midwife, had acquired a local reputation for ministereing to the sick, she had been presented on charges of witchcraft in 1669. 'Widow Burt practiced healing. Like certain other women who had this skill, she was vulnerable to accusations of witchcraft from disappointed patients or suspicious neighbors.'
