I tend to hear similar stories around here about wells being full of Revenuers.

How do they know they were Jewish without the noses? 

Oh, come on, we were all thinking it.

I was wondering how they could tell they were circumcised...

Wow, what awful deaths.  It said that the adults suffered serious fractures from hitting the bottom head first but there was evidence that the children were cushioned by the bodies of the adults.  I guess it's possible that they were still alive for a while.  Terrifying...hopefully they were already dead before going in.

I agree, I was in York a while back and read about the deaths the jewish people there were subject to, not pretty at all, and for no sensible reason.

Oh, okay. Somebody has to do it.

17 Jewish skeletons and a skeleton priest walk into a bar...

they were scapegoats for plagues and stuff. I read some study once that correlated the rise in sugar prices with the number of lynchings in the deep south or something. People are horrible.
