Did anyone catch SJP on the Ancestry.Com infomercial/TV show? She had WITCHES in her background! It was a hoot.
Sarah Jessica Parker appeared on a recent episode of “Who Do You Think You Are?” to have her roots traced. By ‘roots’, I am not referring to a) regrowth or b) Mathew Broderick. Instead, I refer here, to her family history, where it was revealed that her 10th great-grandmother Esther Ellwell, was one of the innocent victims accused of witchcraft in the 1692 Salem trials.
Parker was relieved to discover that her relo narrowly avoided being burnt at the stake after the witchcraft trial court disbanded, just weeks before her hearing.
