Elizabeth Bliss being born in the Northampton area and her sister later being sent to Boston for a witchcraft trial suggests that "Boston Mount" might be an old or colloquial name for a place near Northampton. It's possible that the name "Boston Mount" has either fallen out of use or was a specific landmark or estate rather than an official town name.
To summarize:
Elizabeth Bliss was born in the Northampton area, Massachusetts, in 1637.
She was later sent to Boston, Massachusetts, for a witchcraft trial.
The name "Boston Mount" could have been a local or colloquial reference that has since become obscure. More detailed local historical records or genealogical resources specific to Northampton or early colonial Massachusetts might provide further clarity.
