I wish them well.
In the 1600’s, in Puritanical New England colonies, there were ‘witch trials as well, to includes a young woman named Alse Young, hung in the Connecticut colony in 1640.
Mind you, Plymouth Rock ‘became a thimh, in 1620.
She was one of a few women charged with witchcraft, but the only one with no familial ties, so there have been no efforts to engage in acquiring a pardon, whereas, the other women’s present day families have litigated and received proclamations of pardons from the statehovernor’s office

I'm not sure what a thimh is. Is it bad?
