Best Answer

The most prominent Puritan minister in Massachusetts at the time would either be Increase or Cotton Mather. Increase, Cotton's father, was in England trying to get the colony's charter back during most of the trials, making Cotton the most prominent that was physically there.

Samuel Parris and Nicholas Noyes were the ministers in Salem Village and Salem Town respectivly, so both would have an impact on a witch crisis in Salem.
