Dont forget the Irish Witches:

Mary Dunbar, Islandmagee

and also Mary Butters, Carnmoney

Thank you liscoole. The Islandmagee Trial I have heard of, but not The Mary Butters  Carmoney case  This case is slightly to late for me I'm trying to keep it to 16th-18th century's. Though the story and ballad was very intresting, and I've taken notes. David.

Hello Bill thanks for that . Strangely dear old Molly is how I started this quest, The Witch with the Crow ( Blackbird). I know quite a lot about Molly as  my Daughter Lives close to Burslem. I been to see her Grave at St John the Baptist Church, Her Grave pointing the opposite way to normal Christian burials North to South.
I'm always wanting to know more though. David.

I'm looking for stories of Witches, any story will do. I don't  mind if they are hearsay or have a modicum of truth. I'm trying to compile a picture of Witches in the UK for a project I'm doing. Do any of you Chatters have a witch in your families history , If so I would like to hear from you , with any story. Thank you for looking. David.
