Regarding the new mailing list: no one has ever voiced any pressing desire to expand the stated scope of the Salem Witch List to include other witchcraft accusations and trials outside of Salem. Past postings have indeed discussed them, so in practice, subscribers appear to me to have felt that cases outside of 1692 Salem were appropriate subject matter within this forum. The Salem Witch List has always been open to anyone with an interest in such trials, whether or not they are descendants of the participants, although there is a high level of genealogical content posted here and the list is hosted by Rootsweb.com, the oldest and largest free genealogy site. I wish Lisa and the new list all the best! --Margo -- Margo Burns, List Owner of the SALEM-WITCH List at Rootsweb.com margo@ogram.org
