I'm at my in-laws' place. We just showed them "The Witchfinders", and we've been talking New England genealogy (see also: my ancestor Preserved Fish).

So, anyone want to hear a story about witches, alchemy, and creepy-ass New England colonizers?

My crystal ball says YES. John Winthrop Jr. was governor of the then-colony of Connecticut, 1657-1671. But he's probably not quite the guy you're imagining. Winthrop was a renowned doctor, a scientist, a member of the Royal Society...

AND an alchemist. He founded New London partly as an alchemist colony.
