Census Reports
===========
This is the first year we see exactly who is in each family, their ages, state they were born in and relationship to each other. I am again listing all the folks by County. Again, most of the New Englanders are Putnams, the Dutch folks are Putmans, but they are recorded both as Putman and Putnam. Sometimes the folks get listed as Pitman, Rutman and such, but we try to find them all one way or the other. I will use the spelling as it most likely should be, and mention in the text if it were indexed wrongly.

Pliny F. Barton and not a Putnam at all. Just a transcription error. Pliny and
family will be here in 1855 and thereafter and appear as Barton. A couple of
Pliny's Barton brothers (listed as Burton) from Maine
are here as well. Not one of ours. Matt Putnam is just leaving them here so you
don't get confused when you're doing genealogy in the year 3147 A.D. 😊
She is 68 NY and lives alone. She is Sarah Dunn, the widow of Henry Putman who was in Ovid, Seneca County in 1810. Henry died, perhaps in the War of 1812, and Sarah was listed in Romulus, Seneca County in 1820. Sarah has moved on over to Erie County. Her son John Putman is living one town over in Royalton.

George Putman is a son of David Putman from Montgomery County. Dutch family. William will die here in 1858, and Betsy is shown here as a widow in 1860.
You’ll need help here. Heck, I need help here. Most everyone here in Essex County is descended from an Asa Putnam. Problem is there seems to be two of them, and both cousins out of Vermont, and frankly I think Eben gets them a bit mixed up as far as kids go. I haven’t found anyone on either line, so I am not at all certain. Be real careful here. The first Asa is number 897, son of Tarrant number 334 and Mary Porter. This line is Asa > Tarrant > Israel > Benjamin > Nathaniel > John. Asa was born in Danvers, Mass. December 28, 1763, and moved with his folks to Orange County Vermont. He married Mary (Polly) Fowler in Corinth, Orange County on January 2, 1792. His children seem to be Polly born VT 1793, Prudence born VT 1795, Elisha born 1796, Hiram born NY 1798 and William Henry Harrison born 1813 NY. This Asa died September 11, 1839, and Polly died May 10, 1858. Then there was another Asa (no number assigned as Eben knew little even of his folks. This Asa was a son of Thomas Putnam (481) and Susannah Stone of Bethel, Windsor County Vermont. This line goes Asa > Thomas > Holyoke > Edward > Edward > Thomas > John. This Asa was born in June 1780 and died in 1865. He married Elizabeth Gallup. According to Eben, in his sketches, the children were Sabin, Mary, Calvin, Joseph, Curtis, Jane, Charles, Francis, Henry and Harrison (probably a single guy Henry Harrison, very common after the War of 1812).
JONATHAN PUTNAM Crown Point, Essex County
He is 17 NY and living at home with his mother Sarah Mariah Cram 41 VT and sister Eliza 18 NY. They are listed under Sarah Maria's second husband Asa Cram 41 MA. The census taker wrote Jonathan and his sister Eliza down as being Crams but they are really Putnams. They are children of the mystery John Putnam of Plattsburgh up in Clinton County. Not sure who John was. He might be the John Putnam in Lewis in 1850 and 1860 but not sure. They were divorced in 1845, and Sarah Maria (Southwick) Putnam married Asa Cram. His dad John Putnam is listed shortly in Lewis, Essex County and is by himself. Jonathan Southwick Putnam will be here in 1860 with a wife and kids and then they're off to Jackson County, Iowa in 1870.
She is 46 NY, Tarrant 24 NY, Mary 22 NY, William 19 NY, Sarah 17 NY, Israel 15 NY, Louisa 13 NY. She is Elizabeth Brown, Elisha’s widow. They were here in 1840 and these are the right number of kids. The sons William and Israel will be in Iowa in 1856, then in Minnesota by 1860, and will be there all their lives.
He is 18 NY and lives with Harry 34 NY and Louisa 20 NY Palmer. Pretty sure he is Henry William Putnam son of Hiram Putnam here in town. He’ll get out to San Diego California.
He and Ruhama Marshall were here in 1840 and will be in 1860, but somehow got missed this census.
He is 20 NY, a clerk. He lives in a boarding house. He is a son of Hiram and Ruhama Putnam. He is Herbert Asa Putnam, and will shortly marry Celintha Jane Gates and be in Winona County Minnesota in the 1857 State Census. They will be there in 1860, back here in 1870, and then I lose him until 1900 in San Diego County California where he still will be in 1920.
He is William Henry Harrison Putnam, 37 NY, Christina Sheldon 23 NY, George 8 NY and Maria 5 NY. He is a son of Asa and Polly Putnam of Orange County Vermont.
Indexed as Salim Putnam. She is Salina Thayer, widow of George Putnam (1182, a son of John Putnam (467) and Catherine Case of Montpelier, Vermont). She is 44 VT, Salina her daughter 24 VT, Sarah Frances 18 VT, Abby 16 VT, Jackson 13 VT, and Prentiss 11 VT. The other son George is off in Pennsylvania now.
He is by himself and listed as 56 born in England, but it is MA. He is likely to be a son of Asa Putnam and Polly Fowler, and may be the one who was married to Sarah Mariah Southwick here in 1826. They got divorced and Sarah married Asa Cram in 1845. They are now listed in Crown Point, Essex County and the two Putnam kids are with them and listed as adopted or just mis-recorded. That listing is above.
He is a millwright 36 VT, Rhoda Smith 30 VT, Frances 7 NY and Charles 3 NY. They will be here in 1860, 1870 and 1880 and 1892. He is a son of Archelaus Putnam (1889) and Phebe Parker. He was born back in Andover, Vermont just before the family moved here.

He is 20 NY and lives in a boarding house. He might belong to the above Daniel, but I don’t think so. Too old. This is probably a dual listing for Elisha’s son listed in Essex, Essex County.
AARON PUTMAN Johnstown, Fulton County

His wife Eliza is 43 NY and they have Harmon 21 NY, Adam 18 NY, Daniel 16 NY, James 12 NY, Stewart 11 NY, Mary 7 NY, Mehetable 5 NY and Amanda 4 NY.

He is 30 NY and boarding. The middle initial could be a P not a J. I think he is the Peter Putman here in 1855, 1860, 1870 and 1865 listed as Aaron P. Putman. That P stands for Peter and he is married to Catherine or Cate.

He is 25 NY and his wife Melvina Dunn 20 NY. They will be in Genesee County Michigan in the 1860 and 1870 censuses. I think he could be a son of William and Elizabeth Putman from Erie County. Dutch folks. Matt Putnam thinks that he is Nelson Victor Putnam a son of Barney Putnam and Margaret Burkhart. Another New York Dutch family. Now in 1850, Barney and family are in Mount Morris in Livingston County only 10 miles away from York. That’s starting to look like a better family relationship. In 1860 Nelson is in Genesee Township in Genesee count and Barney and crew are then 28 miles away in Argentine, Michigan. Then in 1960 and 1970 Nelson has the middle initial ‘V.’, which probably stands for Victor and that puts him right in Barney’s lap. So, I now think Nelson is Nelson Victor Putnam a son of Barney and Margaret. But, it’s a big but, Nelson is divorced in Flint, Genesee County Michigan in 1880 and will die there in 1886. That record says his father is William Putnam. So…mabey I was right in the first place when I figured William was his daddy. But maybe William is Barney’s first or middle name. I’m gonna leave the Michigan censuses alone and put the questions right here in New York.

He will be listed in the 1855 State census with a new wife Lucy Colton, married February 13, 1854. But in 1860, they have separate listings, so I guess it didn’t work out. He was married to Martha Downing then Lucy Colton. He is a son of James Putnam (1670) and Elizabeth Richardson of Lynnfield, Massachusetts.

GEORGE PUTMAN Elbridge, Onondaga County
George is 20 NY and boarding. The above Elizabeth might be his sister. I don’t have the names of whom they are boarding with. George’s middle name starts with W. Could be Washington could be Winslow according to Find-a-grave. There is a record of him being born in Onondaga County in about 1830. There was a Peter Putnam here in Elbridge in 1830. Not completely sure but we suspect that he is Peter # 1286 > Andrew > Elisha > Elisha > Edward > Thomas > John. Peter's wife is Susannah Keep. She died on 22 Jan 1827 in Brutus, New York. Brutus is right next door to Elbridge but over the county line in Cayuga County. Also, Peter's son Calvin Putnam is said to have died on 31 Nov. 1834 in Brutus, which would mean that Peter would have been somewhere nearby in 1830. This is probably him. Peter is missing in 1840 but a few of his older sons can be found living in Rochester in the 1840 census. Peter seems to have had a second wife, name unknown, after Susanna died in 1827. This would, we think, be the parents of George. Peter split or something and went to Michigan. This George and maybe the Elizabeth here in town stayed around with either their mom or some relative and didn’t go to Michigan with their daddy. He will marry Harriet Gale October 2, 1854 in Lake County Ohio and they are in Belmont, Allegany County New York in 1865. They will be in Lake County Ohio in 1870, Ashtabula County Ohio in 1880.

There is another Alanson though who is closer in age who was a grandson of Joel and Elizabeth Putnam and that Alanson was born here in Oswego County and will be in Syracuse with his mother in 1855 and near her in 1860.
