Wilmot Redd

The charge brought against her was one of having "committed sundry acts of witchcraft on bodys of Mary Walcott & Mercy Lewis and others in Salem Village to their great hurt.

"[1] A preliminary examination took place on May 31, 1692, at Nathan Ingersoll's house in Salem Village.

They promptly fell into fits, and when asked what she thought ailed them, Redd said, "I cannot tell."

"[1] Indicted as a witch, Redd was accused of "detestable arts called Witchcraft and Sorceries wickedly, mallitiously [sic] and felloniously used, practiced & exercised at the Towne of Salem.

Memorial markers for her exist at Old Burial Hill in Marblehead - which late Marblehead resident, town historian and "The Spirit of 76 Lives Here" author Virginia Gamage purchased - and in the garden of the King Hooper Mansion at 8 Hooper Street in Marblehead and the Salem Witch Trials Memorial in Salem.
