Nathaniel Felton

[7] Nathaniel Felton's name is found on two petitions of support for individuals accused of witchcraft during the Salem witch trials.

His name appears on a list of 39 Salem residents who signed a petition in her defense.

Subsequently, Nathaniel and several other neighbors drafted and signed a petition in support of John Proctor.

[9] The petition proved unsuccessful and John Proctor was executed upon the conclusion of his trial.

We whose names are under written having several years known John Procter and his wife do testify that we never heard or understood that they were ever suspected to be guilty of the crime now charged upon them and several of us being their near neighbours do testify that to our apprehension they lived christian life in their family and were ever ready to help such as stood in need of their help.
