Associated Daughters of Early American Witches

Thank you for visiting the website of the Associated Daughters of Early American Witches. We are an organization dedicated to preserving and honoring our ancestors who were accused of witchcraft in Colonial America prior to 31 December 1699.

Each year during our annual meeting, the members introduce themselves and state who their accused ancestor was. Sometimes people find new cousins at the breakfast. All the members state is the name of their accused ancestors. The following pages are brief bios of some of our accused ancestors. These pages are not intended to be proof and therefore cannot be used as proof for any application to join this or any other organization. They are just to give us some insight into who these people were and, when information is available, share some of the trials our ancestors went through when accused. Members are invited to write their own bios of their accused ancestors who are not already
represented here. If you would like to write a bio, please forward to the President General at
president@adeaw.us. All bios will be reviewed, edited as necessary, and approved before being added to the website.
We hope you enjoy learning a little about our accused ancestors
