The Samlesbury Witches Update
Samlesbury Witches Update
Please watch this space for my new research into the case of the Samlesbury Witches
Hope you get around to this one day. Christopher Southworth was an interesting and perhaps misunderstood character and I'd love to read further on him.
I did hope to get a small book out on the subject - finished the research some time ago - but unfortunately no interest from my publisher or Salmesbury Hall. Christopher was indeed fascinating - I tracked down several original documents describing his interrogations and activities in London which haven't been addressed before. Maybe I'll return to it one day.....
