This week Jamie Franklin, Director of Collections and Exhibitions at Bennington Museum in Vermont recounts the life and experiences of the accused witch Margaret Krieger. Jamie details what is known of her life and her 1785 trial. Learn about the broader context of the time period, the unique colonial history of the Southern Vermont region and the relevance of this topic even today. Integral to the discussion is Joyce Held's research on Margaret's life, the Pownal Historical Society's role in erecting a historic marker, and the public dedication ceremony for the marker, aiming to honor Margaret Krieger's memory. This lesser known accused witch in the American colonies underscores the significance of understanding the past and its influence on our global present.
