Wow!! It's wonderful that you know this story. I know my grandmother was Roma, in Eastern Europe, but they kept no records so I only know of her life in Canada which was quiet and filled with children. Nice that she was rescued 🥰

You actually know more than I do, but it's cool to know.

Wow! What a relief she escaped...nice to read a story about a Salem witch that ends happily. Wonderful work, and such an interesting backstory as well! Glad she got to live to a good old age.

Thank you, Alexandra. I would dearly love to know the actual details of their escape, but I'm not aware of any account of that existing.

I love your story and I also love the origin story for your story. I must admit one of my favorite details are the names of the horses. Flicker and Fireheart, what great names!

You’ve honored your ancestor’s life and memory very well! Eleven children, ouch! 😂 I loved this story.

Thank you, JD. I would love to know more about Mary's life, but I doubt we'd find anything now.
