he will be the rest of his life.
MARTIN A. PUTMAN Quaker Meadow, Burke County
He is
79 NC and living with William McConnaughey as a
father in law. To make matters worse you can't read the wife's name who would
be his daughter. The name may be Austin. Lots of ink smudges on this page.
Either way I can’t figure him. There are several Pitmans
in the County and he may well be one too.

Found a couple of family sheets for him. He was born in Kentucky in November
1871 and was a son of Renson and Elmyra Pittman from
Tennessee. In 1880 he is at home with them in Morgan County Tennessee and
listed as Pittman. Now it seems he has taken on the spelling of the Putmans
here in North Carolina. Wataugua County is on the
northwest border of North Carolina and is on the border of northeast Tennessee.
Obviously couldn’t write and his name was transcribed as it sounded. That’s how
my Putnam name got changed to Putman in Virginia in the 1650s. He will die in
Lower Creek, Caldwell County February 25, 1942. He married Mollie in 1898. She

LIZZIE PUTMAN Jonathans Creek, Haywood County
She
lives right next door to Joseph, above. She is 25 NC. Her mother, Mary L. (Putman)
Grimes was the widow of Montvale Putman. Mary and Elizabeth were with Joseph in
1900, and Mary has since remarried. Also here is a Charley Putman age 3 listed
as a boarder. The best I can guess at is that Charley was a son of Joe's son
James who is missing in this census.
MARK PUTMAN Jonathans Creek, Haywood County
He is
18 NC and living with Willard Conrad. Some other kids were here with George
Conrad in 1900. George Conrad is Mary Conrad Putman's dad. Mary was the wife of
Montvale Putman. I guess that he is one of Mont and Mary's young 'ens. He will
be married here in 1920.
BEANEY PUTMAN Waynesville, Haywood County
She
is Robena Emiline (Brock) Putman who was widowed (?)
here in 1900 with daughters Jessie and Effie. Well, she is still a widow I
guess or her husband Edward is just never around at census time. But now has
not only Jessie and Effie, but 4 more kids all listed as sons or daughters. Beaney is obviously a hot little trick here. Anyway, she is
36 NC, Jessie 16 NC, Effie 13 NC, Clarence 9 NC, George 6 NC, Annie 4 NC and Verda 2 NC. Maybe she runs a day care center for the
family. Also William Hobert lives next door and he is another son. There is a
small rumor that she may have remarried and then divorced and taken back her
old Putman name. She may just have had a couple of kids out of wedlock as I
find no other marriage records for her.
HOBERT (WILLIAM HOBART)
PUTMAN Waynesville, Haywood County

Jack 5 months old. They were married here April 15, 1908. In the WWI draft

is 23 NC and a stepdaughter of Matt and Rhoda Franklin. She has two children
Esther 2 NC and Callie 1 NC. I assume that she is Linda Price, widow of James

but that’s all the information I have on her. She is here still in 1930.

22 Birthplace not stated, and in the State Hospital for the Insane. He is

the right age in Shenandoah County Virginia in 1930. He says he is married. The

had a son 1 ½ years old in 1930. Might be him and he was here for a long time.

was born in Kentucky in November 1871 and was a son of Renson
and Elmyra Pittman from Tennessee. In 1880 he is at home with them in Morgan
County Tennessee and listed as Pittman. Now it seems he has taken on the
spelling of the Putmans here in North Carolina. Wataugua
County is on the northwest border of North Carolina and is on the border of
northeast Tennessee. Obviously couldn’t write and his name was transcribed as
it sounded. That’s how my Putnam name got changed to Putman in Virginia in the
1650s. He will die in Lower Creek, Caldwell County February 25, 1942. He
married Mollie in 1898. She was a daughter of John Andrew Chambers and Plutina C. Eldridge. She was born in December 1875 in
Wilkes County North Carolina and will die in Morgantown, Burke County North
