Welcome back friend of the podcast Richard Ross III, author of the Connecticut Witch Trial History book, Before Salem.  Richard discusses witch trial cases from 1647-1663  in the Connecticut River Valley before the Salem Witch Trials and how they were influenced by the English Civil War. You will find out how The Witch Finder General impacted witch finding in the American Colonies.  Richard portrays his love for the history and for speaking locally about it around Connecticut. We also hear from friend of the podcast,  Beth Caruso on why some sites in Connecticut could be the witch hanging locations.
