Narrative

Salem MA 1639. There were 3-4 Edward Bishops in Salem at the time of the witchcraft trials so there is a lot of confusion. Possibly father and son, also possibly grandson. Also b. 1611 Kingston, England. Wikipedia points out that this EB could not have married Bridget (but possibly his son Edward) who was hanged as the first witch in Salem.
