The explanation could really just be that the girls were bored of their life, which is a true factor the life a _Puritan girl was not the most exciting. The girls apart of…

Beginning in the 1630’s Puritans came to the colonies after facing persecution in England for their want to purify and reform the Church of England. The Puritans believed that the New World was similar to the Garden of Eden and that the New World was going to be the “city upon the hill”. The Puritans settled in the now known area of Boston, and held services in bare churches throughout the town. Three people who were principal to Puritan religion in the colonies were Richard Mather, a minister…

The Salem Witch Trials In the 14th century, a witch superstition broke out in Europe. When Europeans found the colonies, this belief carried over to their new lands. Many of the settlers, as the colonies gained age, still were very suspicious about the existence of witches.
