I assume you're talking about Rebecca Nurse. She was accused of spiritually murdering seven children of her husband's neighbor and enemy, Mrs. Putnam, all of whom died suddenly after birth. The Putnams had a land dispute with Rebecca's husband. See literary references: "The Crucible" by Arthur Miller and "A Break with Charity" (I forget author's name.)
It is assumed today by historians that the Putnams had vendettas against several families in the community for one reason or another. Mrs. Putnam was trying to get a quick conviction for Goody Osborne for personal resentments.
Rebecca Nurse was accused of murder and witchcraft mainly because she had many surviving children. Mrs. Putnam was convinced that the seven babies she lost at childbirth were being sacrificed for the lives of Rebecca Nurse's children.
ChaCha and the internet says that she died from childbirth with her second child.
Mrs. Putnam is quick to believe that Goody Osborn is a witch because she has experienced the loss of several of her own children, which she attributes to supernatural causes. She is desperate for answers and explanations, so she easily falls into the belief that witchcraft is to blame for her tragedies. Additionally, Mrs. Putnam believes that Goody Osburn has also had children die, which further convinces her of Goody Osburn's involvement in witchcraft.
