Exciting news! My interview about the Salem Witch Trials of 1692 is now available. Connecticut psychotherapist Amynah Dharani has created a new podcast called The Love Vox. She has recorded a several episodes already and is planning to further discuss a variety of topics with specialists and experts relating aspects of mental health and humanity in many different scenarios.

She reached out to ask me about my knowledge of the Salem Witch Trials that happened here in Danvers (Salem Village) and neighboring towns in 1692. I have researched the trials extensively over the years being born, raised and still living here in Danvers, and she thought I may be able to offer some insight and valuable information to her episode as a professional genealogist and because of my personal connection to the trials. My husband Derek and our son D.J.'s ancestor George Jacobs was sadly hung in 1692 so I wanted to shed light on the lives, experiences and legacy of those accused.

Amynah was so wonderful to collaborate with and it was an amazing experience. We are planning to work on more podcasts together so I will be sure to share those when the time comes! I hope you all enjoy!
