Here are some "signs" they used to figure out whether or not you had either been involved or practiced Witchcraft. 1.)If you were female you were more likely to be thought of as a Witch, the two were associated. 2.) You don't have the best financial state, if you were poor and people didn't like you, they most likely would have gotten rid of you by saying you were involved in Witchcraft. 3.) If you were female and independent, people didn't like that a woman could support herself without looking to a man. 4.) If you had too many friends that were girls, you were "praising the devil|." 5.) You attempt to predict your future husband. 6.)
