Bessie Stivenson was tried on witchcraft-related charges in March 1659, alongside two other Stirling women, Magdalene Blair and Isobel Bennet, for using charms to cure illness.[1][2] [3] She was a widow and thought to be around 49 years old at the time of the trial.[4]
Stivenson confessed to healing with deeds, but denied using words.[3] She was found guilty and sentenced to death. She was strangled and burnt.[1]
