概要

Trace Your New England Roots is a podcast about the people, stories, and forgotten lives that shaped early New England.


I’m Eric Ostroff—a genealogist and historical novelist—and in each episode, I take you deep into the past, uncovering real stories from colonial records, court documents, and family histories that have been buried for centuries.


From the Salem Witch Trials to King Philip’s War, and from well-known figures to the everyday men and women whose names fill the old town books, this podcast is about more than just history—it’s about understanding the lives behind the names.


If you’re researching your family, trying to break through a genealogy brick wall, or just love early American history, you’re in the right place.


Because history isn’t just something that happened—it’s something you’re connected to.


Trace Your New England Roots—where history starts with your family.

    Episode 101 The Identity of Widow Mary Parker of Andover
    2026/03/25

    Who was Widow Mary Parker—and how did she become entangled in one of the darkest chapters of New England history?


    In this episode, we step back into September 1692, into the fear, suspicion, and rising hysteria of the Salem Witch Trials. But instead of repeating the familiar narrative, we focus on something deeper: identity. Who was Mary Parker before the accusations? What can the records actually tell us about her life?


    Using real historical documents—town records, court filings, and genealogical evidence—we begin to reconstruct the story of a woman who has largely been reduced to a name on a list.


    This isn’t just about the trials. It’s about recovering a life that history nearly erased.


    If you’ve ever wondered how genealogical research can uncover the truth behind historical figures—or if you’re trying to understand how ordinary people were caught up in extraordinary events—this episode will show you how.
