Deliverance Hobbs was accused of witchcraft during the Salem witch trials. She and her husband, William Hobbs, originally came from Casco, Maine, which was in Wabanaki Indian territory.
Her step-daughter, Abigail Hobbs, was arrested on April 18, 1692, after accusations of witchcraft. Deliverance and her husband were also arrested on suspicion of witchcraft three days later.[1] In 1710, William Hobbs sent a petition to the General Court to pay £40 expenses that their imprisonment cost the family. Eventually, William agreed to settle for £10, which was granted to him in 1712.[2]
