1 Jan 1667 Jahr - Ebenezer Babson, age 25

Beschreibung:

Ebenezer is a fisherman from Gloucester.

In September of 1692, when Gloucester resident Eleanor Babson and her neighbor Mary Sargent began complaining of spectral visions of Indians and French soldiers someone, probably Eleanor’s son, Ebenezer, asked some of the afflicted Salem village girls to visit Eleanor in an attempt to find out who was afflicting her.

The two afflicted girls made the trip to Gloucester and claimed that the specters of Elizabeth Dicer and Margaret Prince were tormenting the women.

As a result, Ebenezer filed complaints against the two women on September 3.
