Ann Putnam, her husband and one of their daughters (Ann Putnam Jr.) all levied accusations of witchcraft, many of them against extended members of the Porter family, and testified at the trials. She is responsible for the accusations of 43 people, and her daughter is responsible for 62. They are considered the instigators of the infamous Salem Witch Trials.
Fun Fact
Of all the Putnam Family members who provided false accusations and witness during the Salem Witch Trails, only Ann Putnam Jr. wrote an apology to be read in church. And even that apology is tainted with the fact she wrote it with the understanding she would be allowed back into the Church.
