Adriana Porter

Adriana Porter (July 1857 – March 1, 1946) was an alleged witch. She was born in Nova Scotia, Canada, and died in Melrose, Massachusetts, United States. Porter's notability rests on a poem, The Rede of the Wiccae, which was published by her granddaughter Lady Gwen Thompson in Green Egg magazine in 1975 and attributed to her. It has become a semi-sacred text within the culture of Wicca. The true authorship of the poem is, however, disputed. Some evidence suggests that it dates from several decades after Porter's death.
