Hello Everyone, hope you are having a great day!
I want to start at the beginning today, give you some background on me and my family. Granted I don't know much but I do know a little. The story around town is that our family farmers name "Gypsy Cove" has a magical meaning and history to it. If so, that would be freaking awesome.
Let me begin with my detective skills here, I am quite impressed with myself and skills to find what information I did. Everything around Coven Hurst is like a big secret!
My Great Great Great Grandmother Amelia Wholeheart, the heart and soul of this family is held in such high regard in our community. For the longest time I thought people were bowing to my family, but mom says that is just how everyone says hello around our town. Amelia Wholeheart was beautiful, from what I could tell from a drawling of her. She was so beautiful her hair was as golden as the first morning sun with highlights of toe blonde, features of a young woman, slender built, but yet curvy, deep set eyes but they glowed of a crystal blue. I do not know how I got all that from a drawling but it was like I could truly see what she really looked like.
From the stories I have heard she got caught up in the false allocations from when the Salem Witch trials were going on. Back when the Salem witch trials were happening they were also going on all over the United States just here and there, but most of it happened in Salem. Here in Ohio you did not hear much about witches, but when one was called out the whole state came to witness the execution of the witch. From what I could see in the drawling she looked like a beautiful towns maiden, it was a blue old cloth style long dress that went to the ankles with a white apron on. But from what Mrs. Patterson says from what she has found in her archives is when someone would bear false witness to whom a witch was they could not see that we were truly one of them. Seriously, they would falsify clothing to make it look like what you would wear for Halloween. It was such craziness back then.
Why the outside community falsely accused her she stood up and spoke her mind which then no one really did, but unfortunately that only made them view her more as a witch than before. But from what the stories say she died for our people in the community so that they would have a safer place, which has placed our families name as for eternally being honored. They stories also state that her husband died that day too, that the outside community said that because he laid his hands on her that he burned from the inside out as punishment. No one knew he was her husband because they hide there relationship and children. Josiah story was that he came from another town were his wife fell ill and died so he brought their daughter here with him, my Great Great Grandmother Elizabeth.
In the stories it mentions things of eternal mates and stuff like being binded together for eternity. But I think that is their way back then of explaining that Josiah and Amelia were as we call today soul mates!
Well I am going searching for some more dirt about the past so keep checking back! Talk to you later
