| Hi..
My name is Jozette Du Pres, I'm working on a book about the Salem witch trials. I had to write this book because my ancestor her name was the same as mine Jozette Du Pres, I found that interesting I was named after an ancestor who was burnt at the stake in 1692 , I wonder if she's re-incarnated in me ? Just a idiot thought, thinking out loud, why my parents didn't call me Mary, Susan, Kim or Lilly, but named me Jozette after a relative who died tragically, matter of fact my Mom showed me a painting of her, it was painted a few years before she died, she was so beautiful, I found out she was 24 when she was burnt at the stake. I'll see if my Mom would photograph the painting...
Jozette. |

| I finally went to my Mom's house , she lives not far from me, I phootgraphed the painting, it amazes me how we can pass for twins, I wonder if genetics has anything to do with it ? I remember I had a friend and he showed me a photo of his grandmother and it was scary. Here's my relatives painting... Jozette

| 10/25/2013 Jozette... I don't see the photos you put up ? Your families history really goes way back, mine goes back to 1885, I would love to know more about your book, why was your relative condemned ? I'm sure it couldn't be because she was beautiful ? Cheers.Joe.... |

| Your mother disturbs me. Why did she name you after such an unfortunate relative? How did this name affect you? |

| I do know she's on my father' side of the family, my Mother didn't know about her until after she named me Jozette, I guess my father was ashamed of the families history. When I was twelve I saw the painting of Jozette and I asked him, he told me the story how our family was originally puritans and how Jozette was a rebel , he said she even at 18 had an affair with the vicker. At the time I didn't quite understand ....Here's her portrait again painted in 1686... Jozette |
