Wicca first begins in the 1930's and 1940's as the spiritual child of a British civil servant by the name of Gerald Brousseau Gardner. Gardner drew from various sources in creating Wicca, including folk magic, ceremonial magic, Masonic rituals, etc. Here's an excellent link to a number of essays covering the history and evolution of modern Wicca.
