1838 Connecticut Blue Laws Witch Trials SALEM New Haven Quakers Witchcraft
This incredible 19th-century record of the Blue Laws of New Haven was a direct correlation to cases during the Salem Witch Trials.

Theophilus Eaton with the assistance of the Rev. John Cotton in 1655 for the Colony of New Haven, now part of Connecticut. After the laws were approved, they were printed in London, England, in 1656 and distributed to households in New Haven.
