Hi Bill and Chris,

I am interested in this as well, since there is a rumor of this in my
husband's line. I do not have a name though.

Barbara (Barbary) Ellen Pruner, b. 1842, was married 1869, to William Henry
Harrison Ayers (Ayre/s) b. 1842 in OH (Galia Co.?) . They evenually ended up
in Schuyler Co. MO.

A rumor is that Barbara or another Ayer descendant could levitate tables and
that there was a witch burned or hung, presumably in Salem Mass., in that
family.

Tricia M.
