Hi all, I did get a reply on the timing of Ann Sr.'s still birth, as follows: >>She had had children born that didn't survive and so did her sister; in fact, she was pregnant and did give birth to another living child in the later part of 1692.<< On the question of Sarah Towne Cloyce: she was the wife of Peter Cloyce, and the sister of both Rebecca Towne Nurse and Mary Town Easty. ALL THREE sisters were accused of witchcraft in the 1692 hysteria, but Sarah was the only one who was NOT put to death. Sarah was in prison at the time the hangings were brought to a halt, and was eventually released with all the others who had been imprisoned. Sarah Cloyce is the "star" character in the PBS docudrama, "Three Sovereigns for Sarah," in which Sarah pleads to the magistrates to clear the names of her deceased sisters, WHICH by the way, was a pretty good movie! I descend from the Towne sisters' brother, Edmund Towne, as well as Sarah Averill Wilde's brother, William. As for the movie, I HAVE to wonder if Frances Hill was shown the final work BEFORE she agreed to have her name added as "Factual Consultant"???!!! Cheers, Joan
