Now we finally
get names, ages and states of birth. It gets a little better from here on.
MADISON PUTNAM Addison, Addison County
He is
a millwright, 35 NY and boarding.
SARAH PUTNAM Addison, Addison County
She
is 18 NY and boarding with a Smith Family. She is some 3 pages further along
than the Madison listed earlier, but they might be connected.
THOMAS PUTMAN Bennington, Bennington County
He is
50 VT and boarding with a Potter Family as a laborer.
ELBRIDGE PUTMAN Dorset, Bennington County
He is
a marble worker, 27 VT and is boarding. He will marry Emily Adeline Melendy on
February 25, 1858, and be in Cleveland, Ohio in the 1860 census, and die
January 30, 1866. Not sure who his folks were though. A note on Ancestry states
they were Asa Putnam and Rhoda Hildreth. There is also a record of his birth in
Deerfield, Mass. that he was born May 21, 1823, but I think he was born up here
in VT or Mass according to the 1880 where the kids parents birthplaces are
shown.
JOHN PUTNAM Cabot, Caledonia County
He is
55 MA, Fanny Stone 50 VT. He is a farmer and has been here a bunch of years. In
1840, they had a 5 year old son. The 15 year old Seth living a few miles away
is probably that son. He is John Rawson Putnam, a son of Gideon Putnam (396)
and Abigail Holton of Charlton, Massachusetts. He was born there April 18,
1795, and will die in Cabot December 3, 1865. He had first married Charlotte
Watson in 1829 back in Charlton, Massachusetts. She died and he married Fanny
in the early to mid 1830s. They will be here in 1860 too, but Cabot will then
be in Washington County.
SETH PUTNAM Lyndon, Caledonia County
He is
15 VT and living with Francis and Celia Fisher. He is likely the son of John
and Fanny of Cabot, Caledonia County. They had a 5 year old son in 1840.
STEPHEN PUTMAN St. Johnsbury, Caledonia County
Still
around. He is now 72 MA and Deborah is 69 MA. He is a cooper.
JOSEPH PUTNAM Sutton, Caledonia County
He is
now 71 RI, Lydia Matthewson, his wife, 64 RI, Horace 17 VT, and Lydia 15 VT. He
is Jokton's son. The two kids are actually grandchildren. They belong to
Joseph’s son Jenckes Matthewson Putnam and his wife Emily both of whom died
last year (1849).
LUCY PUTNAM Sutton, Caledonia County
She
is 60 RI and living with Harvey Childs 54 NH and Silvania Childs 57 RI. I would
guess that Lucy and Silvania are sisters. She is most likely the wife of
Jockton’s son William. William and Lucy were in Burrville, Providence County
Rhode Island in 1820. Jockton was here in 1810 and then went to Rhode Island.
He will die there in 1839 and be brought back here to be buried. Lucy is here
in 1860 and 1870. She will die later in 1870 and is buried here in Sutton.
MARY E. PUTNAM Sutton, Caledonia County
She
is 7 VT, living with Lydia Ruggles. She might also be a daughter of Jenckes and
Emily.
HARRIET PUTNAM Wheelock, Caledonia County
She
is 17 VT living with Charles and Candice Ingalls. She’ll be here boarding with
another family in 1860.
DORINDA PUTNAM Burlington, Chittenden County
She
is a black woman 32 VT. She is probably connected to the family of Thomas or
Violet that were here in 1820. Age fits Violet’s daughter the best.
LEWIS PUTNAM Burlington, Chittenden County
He is
17 CAN, a carpenter living with John Clure also a carpenter from Canada. He should
be the eldest son of Stephen Putnam and Rosella Charles who were here in 1840
and are in Franklin County now. BUT, he could be Stephen’s younger brother
based on the Canada birthplace. If so, the age is more likely 27.
He is
20 VT and lives with his maternal grandfather Levi Cogswell 61 MA. George's folks are Charles Putnam
(1183) and Betsy Cogswell from Addison County. Charles was born in Montpelier
and was a son of John Putnam (467) and Catherine Case, his first wife. George
is still here in 1860.
HARRIET PUTNAM Colchester, Chittenden County
She
is Harriet Pearce the widow of Zeba Putnam (2766) who died here in Colchester
June 21, 1848. They were in Calais in 1840. She is 42 VT, Mariah 19 VT, Ruth A.
17 VT, Ira 12 VT, Sarah E. 4 VT. She runs a boarding house and there are a
bunch of others living here. She’ll be here in 1860 and then in Nebraska after
that.
ASA PUTMAN Underhill, Chittenden County
He is
56 VT and without his wife, it seems. Children at home are Betsy 20 VT, Charles
19 VT, Calvin 24 VT, Jane 14 VT, Henry 11 VT and Francis (guy) 9 VT. The
upcoming Joseph lives nearby and is another son. He is a son of Thomas Putnam
(#481) and Susanna Stone, and was born in Bethel, Vermont. In 1860 he has his
wife, Elizabeth Gallup, back at home.
CHARLES PUTNAM Underhill, Chittenden County
He is
16 VT and living with Austin and Matilda Spaulding. Probably a dual listing for
Asa's son; there just weren't any other families here in Underhill.
JOSEPH PUTMAN Underhill, Chittenden County
He is
21 VT, Julia 17 VT. Her mother Anna Wallace 67 VT is living with them. This
family lives close to his father Asa Putman.
AARON PUTNAM Westford, Chittenden County
He is
a farmer 38 VT and Anna Osgood is 39 VT. They will be missing in 1860 and both
will be here in 1870. He would be a son of Luther and his first wife Sally
Batcheller. The family was here through the 1840s. He’ll be here through the
mid 1870s. In 1880 Anna will be widowed and still here in 1900.
HAMAN PUTNAM Westford, Chittenden County
He is
a farmer 26 VT, Mary is 28 VT. They live with the Julius Farnsworth Family. He
is Luther's son. Not sure about Mary unless she is a first wife I don’t know
about. He will soon marry Juliette Chapin. They are here in 1860, but Juliette
is widowed here in Westford in the 1870 census.
He
was born in 1830 in Canada East (Montreal-Quebec area). His original spelling
was Patenaude, now is pronounced Putnode and will soon become Putnam. He is
listed as a brick mason 19 CE. Next door is a Rose King 17 or 19 CE whom he
will soon marry. They are in Clayton County, Iowa by 1860 with kids born in
Vermont starting in 1851. He is not really a Putnam, but I am adding him in to
help explain him when he does start using the Putnam spelling. Matt Putnam dug
up all this info. Thanks.
He is
now 65 VT, Rhoda 57 VT, Newell 23 VT and Lovell 15 VT. This will be his last
appearance, as he will die here shortly on June 1, 1850. Rhoda will be around
until she dies November 28, 1868. Newell will also die shortly on June 2, 1856.
MARIA PUTNAM Westford, Chittenden County
She
is 28 VT living with a Weaver family in what seems to be a boarding house. She
lives very close to the above Haman Putnam. Luther had three sons in 1840. She
could be a widow of the ‘missing’ one, or simply and unwed daughter, or a dual
list of Haman’s present wife.
JOHN W. (WHIPPLE) PUTNAM Lunenburg, Essex County
He is
number 1146, Abel and Polly's son who has been here most of his life. His first
wife, Clarissa Moore, died November 3, 1838. He married Ellen Horne in New
Hampshire in 1843. He is 36 NH and a farmer. His wife Ellen G. is 32 NH, Alonzo
M. 11 VT, William C. 6 VT, Benjamin F. 3 VT. Also there is a physician George
Vincent 28 VT and Lavinia Todd 76 NH who may be Ellen's mom. Ellen gave her
name as Horne on the marriage certificate, but that may have been a married
name. I don't find them here in Vermont in 1840. He will die shortly, August 7,
1852. Ellen will marry a Caruthers fella and be here in 1860. Ben will be here
with Ellen, the other two sons will be just across the river in Coos County,
New Hampshire in 1860.
STEPHEN PUTMAN Swanton, Franklin County
He is
35 CAN, Rosella Charles his wife 35 VT, Mary 15 VT, Lydia 14 VT, Jonathan 12 VT
and Stephen 10 VT. They were in Burlington, Chittenden County in 1840. He was
with his folks Lewis Putnam in both 1830 and 1840, and was in Canada before
that. I don’t find him after this, but he was in Newbury, Orange County by
then. The Vermont VR states he died in Newbury on July 7, 1864 of heart
disease. Mary and Lydia are on their own in Orleans County in 1860, and his son
Stephen is married in Newbury, Orange County in 1870. Then Rosella is in Essex
County, NY in 1870 with the rest of the family born in VT. Something is also
wrong with this entry. There were at least 4 other kids from ages 8 down to 2
who are with Rosella in 1870.
GEORGE PUTNAM Alburg, Grand Isle County
He is
25 VT, his sister Abby 17 VT and brother Jackson 12 VT. George will soon marry
Ann Hill who will die in 1851 and then later marry Rebecca Rider in 1854. We
think he is a son of George Putnam and Salina Thayer from Springfield, Windsor
County.
ALVAH S. (SABIN) PUTNAM Cambridge, Lamoille County
He is
27 VT, a farmer, Martha Call, his wife, 25 CAN, Cornelia A. 7 VT, Eciba F. (?)
5 VT, Andrew G. 2 VT Alvah O. 7/12 VT. He is a son of Asa Putnam and Elizabeth
Gallup. Harrison Putnam is another son of Asa and is living just down the road.
They'll be in Chittenden County in 1860. He'll be indexed then as 'Satrine'. He
married Martha Call in Eden, Vermont on October 12, 1842. Martha seems to be a
full blooded Indian from a tribe that moved from Vermont to Canada. They will
be here in 1860 as well.

32 VT, Emeline 27 VT, Emeline 7 VT and Sanford E. (Emerson) 4 VT. He is a son

T. 16 VT, Lydia Ann 15 VT, Emeline A. 13 VT and there is a Margaret 83 NH. She
is Margaret Martin, Abijah's second wife. I am not certain, but she was
probably Lydia's sister. His death certificate states he married both women.

Elizabeth Perkins there in 1831. They were there together in 1840. George is a Methodist minister.
He is a son of Abel Putnam and Mary or Polly Whipple. Abel is number 457, and
is a son of Thomas Putnam (189) and Rachel Weatherbee of Charlestown. This line
goes back George > Abel > Thomas > Seth > Thomas > Thomas >
John. This family will be in Dixon, Lee County, Illinois in 1860, and in 1870
in Ogle County, Illinois, and then off to Iowa.
GEORGE PUTNAM Albany, Orleans County

He is
35 VT, Mary is 35 VT and Julia 7 VT. James is number 1186 in Eben's system He
is a son of John Putnam (467) and his second wife Peggy Glidden of Montpelier.
He was born in Montpelier February 3, 1811. The wife bit is confusing. He
married Sarah Ann Mason in Ludlow, Vermont on March 5, 1838. Not sure who Mary
is; she is 2 years older than Sarah would be. To make matters more confusing,
Mary and Julia aren't around in 1860 and by then there is a second daughter
Mary Cecilia. In 1870, Sarah is present and accounted for though. She will be
widowed here in 1900. At any rate, Jim runs a hotel, the Franklin House, here

the remainder of his life until he dies in 1888.
GEORGE (WASHINGTON) PUTMAN Wallingford, Rutland County

in Richland County, Wisconsin in 1880. George was born in Andover, Windsor
County on March 24, 1826. His folks were George Putnam and Lucinda Hills of

JOSEPH (JACOB) PUTMAN Marshfield, Washington County
He is
66 NH, Lucy Barnes 68 NH. He's an innkeeper. His name is Jacob, his father was
Joseph as you have found out in previous reports. He is indexed as Joseph, so
maybe that's his middle name or something. Now that both his folks have died,
maybe he is using his proper name. Maybe it's just a misprint. At any rate, he
will die in 1856, and Lucy will be living with her son Alonzo here in
Marshfield at age 77.

are not his folks. He is most likely a son of John Putnam and his second wife
Roxanna Howard. The family wasn't listed in 1840 so I don't know for sure. John

as being born in Massachusetts in the 1860 which is correct. Again, I think he

Putnam number 916, a son of Bartholomew Putnam (347) and his first wife Mary
Putnam of Sutton, Mass. He married Harriet in Halifax, Windham County on August
11, 1844. His folks are back in Massachusetts, and he will be in Shrewsbury

and the kids are in Lowell, Mass., and she will be in 1870. And Alonzo will be
alone in Winchester, New Hampshire in 1860. They will still be apart in 1870,
so I guess a divorce or some such took place. Alonzo will be back in Vermont by

Phineas' son and has been here most of his life, except that ill fated trip to
Indiana in 1837 (see the 1840 listing for that story). He is now 80 MA and

Alma Putnam. Abner went to Chautaugua County, NY in the mid 1830s, returned
here to Chester and died in 1845. He had a daughter Salada born in 1833, so age
is correct.

35 MA (VT really), Miranda 32 VT, John F. 8 VT, Stella 7 VT and there is a
Charles M. Putnam 67 VT(?) with them. Orrick, number 3366, was born here in

They originally came from Charlestown, New Hampshire. They were listed here in
Weathersfield in 1800 and in 1830, and back in Charlestown for the 1840 census.
They were probably in Weathersfield in 1810 and 1820, but just not indexed
properly.
PATTY PUTNAM West Windsor, Windsor County

woods and the census taker simply missed this family. But she is here, just as she
was in 1840. She is now 70 and has her son Jonas and his wife Mary Jane Rowe

the son of Violet Putnam of Burlington.
They
are listed as Portmans, but are ours. He is 64 VT, Tully (Thursey) 53 VT. They
are living with Jonathan 64 NY and Sally 53 VT Bridges. Adolphus and Sarah are
children of Stephen Putnam and Sarah Walker. Tully or Thursey as she was listed

17 VT and living with an Ingalls family.

He is

good for him, he has finally retired.
LUCY PUTNAM Sutton, Caledonia County
She
is 70 RI, and still lives with Harvey and Sylvania Childs. She is most likely
the wife of Jockton’s son William. William and Lucy were in Burrville,
Providence County Rhode Island in 1820. Jockton was here in 1810 and then went
to Rhode Island and died in 1839 and brought back here to be buried. She was

(ALVAH) SABINE PUTNAM Underhill, Chittenden County
In
1850 he was listed as Alvah S. in Cambridge, Lamoille County, now just as
Satrine. In looking up the record, the name looks more like Sabine. I believe
the name is actually Sabine, and he is a son of Asa Putnam and Elizabeth Gallup
from here. Thomas' son Asa had been here in Underhill for a long time, though
he has just moved over into Lamoille County for this reporting period. Anyway,
Sabine is now 36 VT, Martha Call, his wife, 34 CDN, Euciba 14 VT, Andrew 12 VT,
Orville (Alvah Orville) 9 VT, Rollins 7 VT, Eliza 6 VT, Emma (Martha Emma) 2 VT

VT, Byron 1 VT and Charles 1/12 VT. Also there is Ruth Chapin 63 NH who is

VT, Mindwell 33 VT and Mary 30 VT. His father, Joel 64 VT, is living here as

75 VT, Sophia R. 43 VT, Henry Clay 4 VT and John Asa 1 VT. He was single here
in 1860. He is still a freight agent. Okay, Betsy is Elizabeth Heath, widow of
Jesse Putnam (2139) of Orange County, Sophia is her daughter. They were all
together in 1850. So, S. G. here is a son of Jesse and Betsy. That makes him Samuel
Grow Putnam born in Orange County November 22, 1822. He was here in 1860, and
in Somerville, Mass. in 1850. He’ll be here in 1880.
He is
32 VT, a printer and is boarding. The birthplace is wrong. He is Ezra Nelson,
son of Nelson Putnam and Almira Baldwin of Wells County, Indiana. Ezra Nelson
of Cavendish, VT went there in 1837, lost half his family in a plague and went
back to Vermont the next year. Two of his sons stayed there, Nelson was one.
Anyway, this Nelson will be in Clinton, Mass. in 1880 still a printer and at
that time states his birth as being in Indiana. That’s how I was able to tie
him in.
Still
here, but has sold the hotel and is a coal dealer now. Think he was also chief
of police about this time, and definitely will be by 1880. He is number 1186
and is 57 VT, Sarah Ann Mason, his wife, 53 VT and Mary Cecelia 19 VT is still
at home.

the widow of John Rawson Putnam who has been here most all his life, though he
was born in Mass. Frances Stone is 69 VT and lives with Roxanna Hoyt 68 VT.
She’ll be here in 1880 at age 79. John Rawson Putnam was a son of Gideon Putnam
(396) and Abigail Holton of Charlton, Massachusetts. He was born there April
18, 1795, and died in Cabot December 3, 1865.
He has
moved over from Woodbury. He is now 51 VT, Emma (Emerancy Pierce) 46 VT. Also
here are their daughter Clara 19 VT and her husband Edwin Burnham 27 VT. He is
number 2773, a son of Caleb Putnam and Susannah Hayward. They’ll be here in

He is
William Jackson Putnam, son of William Putnam and Esther Hubbard. In fact his
dad is here. Interesting stuff coming up. Jackson is 51 VT, his wife Sarah
Isabella Weaver 42 VT, Clara 17 VT and his dad William 82 MA. Now, we haven’t
see old William here since the 1840s. In 1860, I figured he was dead, as his
wife Esther was then living with her daughter Emmeline. Oh well. Either a
divorce or something here. Esther seems to have died as I don’t find her
anywhere now. Bill and Sarah will be in Peoria County, Illinois by the 1880.
He is

He’s Prentiss’
son. He is 38 VT, Abigail Holden, his wife, 38 VT, Mary Ann 13 VT, Ella 11 VT,
Etta 9 VT, Warren 5 VT and Chester 1 VT. Merrick wasn’t listed in 1860, so I
can’t be sure, but I think Ella and possibly Etta are daughters of his brother
Daniel who died in 1862. According to a relative, Merrick only had three
children of his own.
He has
moved from Guilford. He is now 58 VT, Lurissa 50 VT and Frank H. (Henry) 22 VT.

will be around in 1880, and he will die in an accident (falling tree, a
lumberman’s worst enemy) in 1888.
This
entry was indexed as Sallie Putnam, because she was the eldest around. But,
George (Peter’s son) is the key player here. He is now 71 NH, his wife Lucinda
Hills is 71 NH. Sallie is Sarah Fuller, George’s stepmother (Peter’s second
wife). She is 88 NH and going strong.
He is
listed as Arthur Morgan 4 NH living with Elisha Morgan 48 VT and his wife Laura
Morgan 47 VT. He is a son of Caleb Putnam and Joanna Badger from Croydon, New
Hampshire. Hiram Arthur or Arthur Hiram was born April 19, 1866. His mother was
from here, and she died October 17, 1868. He is shown here with the Morgans in

of his mother. He is married here in 1900.

VT, and there are Christine 55 VT and Cora 14 VT. He should be the son of Solon
Putnam (2568) and Mary Ann Rice of Springfield, Vermont. Age is perfect. No
