Saltonstall family

The Saltonstall family is a Boston Brahmin family from the U.S. state of Massachusetts, notable for having had a family member attend Harvard University from every generation since Nathaniel Saltonstall—later one of the more principled judges at the Salem Witch Trials—graduated in 1659. The family originated in Yorkshire, England. Notable members of the family include:

* Richard Saltonstall, colonist with the Winthrop Fleet
* Nathaniel Saltonstall, judge at Salem Witch Trials
* Dudley Saltonstall, Commander at Penobscot Expedition
* Leverett Saltonstall I, U.S. Representative in 1830s
