Unwelcome Souls
The Burying Point is the oldest cemetery in Salem. Among its esteemed occupants are a Mayflower pilgrim, a judge, and one of Reverend Cotton Mather's children.
Among those not laid to rest here? Anyone found guilty of witchcraft in 1692-1693. Those found guilty were not allowed to be buried on hallowed ground.
I have to do some research to see if any of the accused have known gravesites. In some cases, family members collected the bodies and buried them on home plots, but I don't know that any would have been marked...
