I moved the timeline information from the main article so that we can work on it. I recommend looking at the List of timelines to see how others are formatted to see how we want to work with this one. Ogram 13:58, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Memorable Providences Relating to Witchcrafts and Possessions

The ref cited lists the publish date as 1689, everything else I can find also lists the pub date as 1689, what keeps me from changing it is the timeline (also from the same site as the ref cited, lists it as 1688, [1] anyone know why the discrepancy and which is correct, I'm apt to believe it is 1689 as everything but that timeline lists it as that. -Dureo (talk) 07:54, 7 December 2007 (UTC) this is ok sometine

The events took place in 1688, and Mather published his account in 1689. -Ogram (talk) 23:03, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
