  • Dorcas Hoar (née Galley; c.1634 – July 12, 1711) was a widow accused of witchcraft during the Salem witch trials of 1692. She was found guilty and condemned to hang, but then confessed and with the support of several ministers, was given a temporary reprieve, after which the trials had already ended. Born Dorcas Galley in Beverly, Essex County, Province of Massachusetts Bay, daughter of John and Florence Galley, she married William Hoar and was the mother of one son, named for his father, and two daughters. Her sisters were Mary Ross and Elizabeth Giles. A fortune teller and accused burglar, it appeared inevitable she would be named as a witch. She was ordered arrested on April 30, 1692, by magistrates John Hathorne and Jonathan Corwin, after Jonathan Walcott and Thomas Putnam of Salem Village had made complaints that Hoar, Phillip English of Salem, and Sarah Murrell, also of Beverly, had afflicted Mary Walcott, Mercy Lewis, Abigail Williams, Ann Putnam, Jr., Elizabeth Hubbard, and Susannah Sheldon. Marshal George Herrick delivered Hoar and Murrell to Ingersoll's tavern in Salem Village on May 2, but was unable to locate English, who had fled Salem. While imprisoned awaiting trial, Hoar confessed to acts of witchcraft to John Lovett, III, son of Bethiah (née Rootes) and John Jr. Lovett. John was visiting his own grandmother, Susannah Rootes, who had also been accused of witchcraft and was awaiting trial. Jonathan testified to this confession at Hoar's trial; she was found guilty. Rev. Deodat Lawson wrote of her, "only one Woman Condemned, after the Death Warrant was signed, freely Confessed, which occasioned her Reprieval for sometime; and it was observable, This Woman had one Lock of Hair, of a very great length, viz. Four Foot and Seven Inches long, by measure, this Lock was of a different colour from all the rest, (which was short and grey) it grew on the hinder part of her Head, and was matted together like an Elf-Lock; the Court ordered it to be cut off, to which she was very unwilling, and said, she was told if it were cut off, she should Dye, or be Sick, yet the Court ordered it so to be." Actress Jean Smart was revealed to be a direct descendant of Dorcas Hoar on the sixth episode of the ninth season of the American genealogy documentary series Who Do You Think You Are? (en)
  • Dorcas Hoar (nacida Galley; c. 1634 -12 de julio de 1711) fue una viuda acusada de brujería durante los Juicios de salem de 1692, encontrada culpable y condenada a la horca, pero confesó y con el apoyo de varios ministros, le fue dado un indulto provisional después de que los juicios ya habían terminado. Nació como Dorcas Galley en Beverly, Condado de Essex, Provincia de la Bahía de Massachusetts, hija de John y de Florence Galley, se casó con William Hoar y fue la madre de un hijo, llamado igual que su padre. Sus hermanas eran Mary Ross y Elizabeth Giles. Una adivina y acusada de ladrona, parecía inevitable que fuera nombrada como una bruja. Se ordenó su arresto el 30 de abril de 1692 por los magistrados John Hathorne y Jonathan Corwin, después de que Jonathan Walcott y Thomas Putnam de Salem habían hecho denuncias de que Hoar, Phillip English de Salem, y Sarah Murrell, también de Beverly, habían afligido a Mary Walcott, Mercy Lewis, Abigail Williams, Ann Putnam, Jr., Elizabeth Hubbard y Susannah Sheldon. El alguacil George Herrick entregó a Hoar y Murrell a la taberna de Ingersoll en el pueblo de Salem el 2 de mayo, pero no pudo localizar a English, que había huido de Salem. El examen de Dorcas tuvo lugar el 2 de mayo de 1692.​ Mientras estaba encarcelada a la espera de juicio, Hoar confesó actos de brujería a Jonathan Lovett, hijo de Jonathan y Bethia (nacida Rootes) Lovett. Jonathan visitaba a su propia abuela, Susannah Rootes, que también había sido acusada de brujería y estaba a la espera de juicio. Jonathan testificó esta confesión en el juicio de Hoar; ella fue declarada culpable.​ El Rev. Deodat Lawson escribió de ella, "solamente una mujer condenada, después de que la garantía de muerte fue firmada, libremente confesada, que ocasionó su reevaluación por algún tiempo, y era observable, esta mujer tenía un mechón de pelo, de una longitud muy grande, a saber, cuatro pies y siete pulgadas de longitud, por medida, este mechón era de un color diferente al resto (que era corto y gris) que crecía en la parte posterior de su cabeza, y estaba enmarañado, la corte ordenó que se cortara, a lo que ella no estaba dispuesta."​ (es)
