[edit] The REAL John Proctor
I've spent years researching the Proctor family and John Proctor as he is my grandfather, many generations back. I have update the article with much of this information so we have a more accurate picture of him than that which is pictured in Arthur Miller's play. sharriso..... 25 May 2006
This page seems to present the fictional version of John Proctor created in "The Crucible" by Arthur Miller. If I remember correctly, John Proctor was actually quite old by the time of the Trials, so the story about an affair is extremely unlikely, besides the fact that there is no evidence for it.

[edit] Response to Andrew Davis' post
Quite what I was thinking (not really). Also, the article should specify at the beginning that it's going to focus on the fictional John Proctor. Or better yet--the article should be corrected so that it talks about John Proctor and not his portray in Miller's play, how about that? --Plavalagunanbanshee 22:02, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Another response...
Although I didn't really add much information about the real John Proctor, I did manage to organize the existing information into new sections, so maybe the information already present actually seems more significant. Because the fictional and real John Proctor actually go hand-in-hand, separate articles shouldn't really be created on both. How much information is there about the real Proctor anyway? Might as well keep Wikipedia clean and leave both Proctors in the same article. By the way, if my pedophile comment within the article seems inappropriate, please remove it, I won't be offended (not to mention I don't have much of a say in this anyway, this is Wikipedia).

[edit] Not Really "External" Links
None of the links are really external, so I'm just changing the name of the section to "See Also".
