The tombstone at the gravesite that says Mary Stockum was her mother's headstone. Mary Stockum was in fact involved in witchcraft.

Of course now I just pass it off as a silly childhood fantasy.

I find it highly unusual that a community burned a woman as a witch in 1862. You would think that some type of documentation existed. Of course, that doesn't mean documentation doesn't exist, but I've not encountered anything. I have spoken to a descendant and she poo poosRandy M.
