Samuel Wilkins

Samuel Wilkins II (born c. 1673)[1] was an accuser in the Salem witch trials. He was the son of Henry Wilkins,[2] and thus the grandson of Bray Wilkins and nephew of John Wilkins and Margaret Wilkins Knight, two other accusers. He testified against his cousin-in-law, John Willard.[3]
