The Witch of Saratoga
Angeline Tubbs, The Witch of Saratoga, was a semi-legendary figure who lived in the area of Saratoga Springs, New York in the 1700s and 1800s.
==Background==
The story goes that Angeline was born in England around 1761. She became engaged to a British officer, and at age fifteen followed him when he was sent to the colonies to fight in the Revolutionary War. After the British defeat in the Battles of Saratoga he abandoned her. With no place to go and knowing no one in a strange country Angeline supposedly walked fifteen miles through what was than uninhabited wilderness to the neighborhood of Saratoga Springs. There she settled at the base of a hill called "Mount Vista," described as "a small mountain one mile north of the village," probably a promontory in the vicinity of Glen Mitchell—
For many years Angeline lived there in a hut surrounded by a brood of cats. She developed a reputation as a witch and made a living telling fortunes and trapping.
