Roger Toothaker (November 27, 1634, England – June 1692, Province of Massachusetts Bay) was a farmer and folk-healer who came to Massachusetts from England shortly after he was born. He was one of the victims of the Salem witch trials who died in prison. ==Background== Roger Toothaker was born in England in 1634. In 1635, as an infant, Toothaker traveled to the Massachusetts Bay Colony from London, sailing from August 21 to September 11 on the ''Hopewell'', led by Captain Babb. In 1638, his father, Roger Toothaker, died, possibly in Plymouth on February 5. Later that year his mother Margaret married Ralph Hill on December 21 and they lived in Billerica. He served as an assistant to Samuel Eldred, and later became a physician although he had no formal medical training. In or around 1662 or 1663, his stepfather died. In 1665 he married Mary Allin, a midwife, and had eight children who survived infancy: Nathaniel, Martha, Allin, Roger, Sarah, Mary, Andrew, and Margaret.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Roger Toothaker profile )〕 Toothaker, a farmer and folk-healer, claimed to specialize in detecting and punishing witches. For several years before the Salem witch trials began in 1692, Toothaker had reportedly bragged to locals that he had taught his daughter, Martha Emerson, wife of Joseph Emerson, his trade and that she had killed a witch.〔(Toothaker family profile ), historyofmassachusetts.org; accessed September 12, 2015.〕
