Hmm .... so men were also accused of witchcraft! Interesting. Many thanks for these lists, Wendelin. Does your information say what was considered witchcraft? Like, was breaking the law considered witchcraft, or was it something more bizarre? Fortunately, my Barbara Widemer was born in 1681, and my Sauer ancestors managed to stay off this list - but it's creepy to think of humans being burned at the stake!
