Also here is Lucinda Sprague 58 IL listed as mother and Douglas Johnson 64 IL listed as uncle. Problem child. He pops up in Fulton County, Illinois in 1900 as a grandson of Alexander Wilcox (probably Willcoxin as they married several Putmans there). No clue to his folks. I assume Lucinda is indeed his mom, but don’t know who her Putman husband was. But he would belong to the Southern Putman Family like everyone else in Fulton County.

He was convicted of first degree murder and sent to the Rock County Jail on December 1, 1939. He died November 29, 1959 in Green Bay. His death certificate says his folks were George Nelson Putnam and Mary Joubert. His dad would be a son of George and the Mary mentioned here in Milwaukee.
