Hanging of Hibbins on Boston Common, June 19, 1656. Sketch by F.T. Merril, 1886
Ann Hibbins (also spelled Hibbons or Hibbens) was a woman executed for witchcraft in Boston, Massachusetts Bay Colony, on June 19, 1656. Her death by hanging was the third for witchcraft in Boston and predated the Salem witch trials of 1692.[1][2] Hibbins was later fictionalized in Nathaniel Hawthorne's famous novel The Scarlet Letter.[3] A wealthy widow, Hibbins was the sister-in-law by marriage to Massachusetts governor Richard Bellingham.[2][4] Her sentence was handed down by Governor John Endicott.[nb 1][3]
