Thomas Oakes & Salem Witchcraft Trials[edit]

Thomas Oakes played a pivotal role in the Salem Witchcraft Trials, i.e., he was the physician that Cotton Mather consulted on the case of the Goodwin children and he who made the prognosis "nothing but an hellish Witchcraft coulb be the Original of thses Maladies." That might be worth mentioning in this entry. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.147.1.138 (talk) 15:24, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Place of death[edit]

I have a gut feeling that it was most likely East Haven, Connecticut, not Massachusetts; but have no WP:RS to justify resolving the ambiguous link. Narky Blert (talk) 20:47, 21 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
