CENSUS
AMOS PUTMAN
Clayton, Adams County
The son of John William Putman and Hannah Aber from next door in Brown County. He is listed as 22 IL. His wife, Stella Vaughn, is 26 IL. The children are: Bonnie 5 IL, and Everett J. 1 IL. He was born June 2, 1885 in Mount Sterling, Brown County and will die here in 1949. He married Stella July 26, 1903.

DAVID PUTNAM
None listed, Adams County
He is listed as David Puttman 25 IL. His wife, Irena, is 25 IL. Their son, Fred A., is 2 IL. Not sure on this one at all. Wheeler Putnam had a son David in St. Clair County. That David is still there in East St. Louis, and is also married to a gal named Irene. The ages are off here, but there were NO other Davids in the state. Both counties are right on the river. He may have been a riverboat pilot, and this may be some kind of dual listing upstream. Wheeler’s son is in East St. Louis right now and was in 1900 as well. He is now 32 IL there. No other ideas.
