If this isn't the right place (and I suspect it isn't, but couldn't find a Connecticut Witchcraft group), please direct me elsewhere. ;)
I'm the 10th great granddaughter of Mary Barnes, one of the last three witches executed in Connecticut in the 1660s. I have little information - and understand there's little available - but would love to connect with any other Barnes descendents who're interested in this event.
Are there any good sources of information I may have missed? I've gotten copies of 'Devil in the Shape of a Woman', notes from a lecture by Richard Dunn on 'Witchcraft Trials in Connecticut', and exerpts from William DeLoss Love's 'The Colonial History of Hartford'.
Thanks for any information / help you may offer.
