Census Reports
1880 – 1900
===========
This is now the Full 1880 Census, not just the Soundex portion. The Soundex only included families with children 10 and under.
He is 50 VT VT VT, Martha Hurlburt 46 VT VT VT and Lillie A. 17 VT. He is a son of Charles Putnam (1183) and Betsy Cogswell from Addison County. He was here in 1860 and in Chittendon County in 1870.
He is 57 CAN CAN CAN. He lives with Eli and Nancy Robins.
He is 42 NY NY NY, Thetis Bishop 40 NY VT NY, Anna 13 NY, Irene 10 VT, and Amy 6 VT. His sister Mary Morehouse 44 NY lives with them. He is a son of Hiram Putnam and Ruhama Marshall. He was born September 23, 1837 in Essex, Essex County, New York. He married Thetis there in about 1866. This is an old Vermont family. Hiram was a son Asa Putnam (#897) and Mary ‘Polly’ Fowler of Orange County, Vermont. Asa’s dad was Tarrant Putnam (#334) and Mary Porter of Danvers, Massachusetts. You’ll find info on Asa back in the 1790 Vermont Census. It was the only time he was here. Look back there for the lineage. They are in San Diego, California in 1920.
He is 54 NY NY NY, Mary Hamlin 50 OH, Henry W. Jr. 15 VT. He is another son of Hiram Putnam and Ruhama Marshall of Essex, Essex County, New York. He and his brother Albert were here in 1870. He went out to California in 1849 for the Gold Rush. Made a bundle, returned to Vermont in 1864 and will go back out to California in 1898. He will be there in San Diego in 1900.
He is 59 VT VT VT, Ursula 50 NY, Hollis (George in 1870), 26 VT, Sarah 16 VT, Fannie 14 VT and Sheridan 11 VT. This is a black family. They were here in 1860, in Rutland in 1870 and back here now. The name could be either Horace or Hollis, it bounces back and forth each year.
She is 20 VT NY NY and a servant with a Moffett family. She is Mary Eveline Putnam, daughter of Horace Putnam and Ursula James from this county. She is listed a Mullato and Horace is Black. She was with the family in Rutland County in 1870.
She is 75 VT MA MA and lives with her sister Sarah Bridges 73 VT MA MA. She is the widow of Lewis Putnam from Windham County. She was widowed there in 1850 and here with Jonathan and Sarah Bridges ever since. Tirza was born here in Whittingham May 9, 1805 and will die here June 29, 1885. Her grave spells it that way.
He is 40 NH NH NH, Ella 39 NY NY NY, Graham F. 11 VT, John F. 9 VT, Louise P. 4 VT and Ella C. 5/12 VT. Nate is number 2762, a son of John Putnam (1235) and Almira French. He was born in Croydon, Sullivan County, New Hampshire February 2, 1839. He studied at the General Theological Seminary in New York, and graduated in 1863. He first married Belle G. Farr, who died around 1872. He then married his present wife, Ella C. Chester, and moved to take over St. John’s Parish in Poultney (below and west of Rutland on the New York border). I guess he picked up a new Parish here in maple syrup country. I remember when we would pass through St. Johnsbury on the way to Burke Mountain to ski, that we could smell the maple syrup boiling in St. Johnsbury from a couple of miles away. Yum. Anyway, they will be here in 1880, and then be going to Salt Lake City where he will take over a Church. Nathaniel will die in Salt Lake City April 26, 1891. The son John Farr was born here October 1, 1870 and will die out in Salt Lake City February 14, 1893. In 1900, I only find his son Graham in Salt Lake City. In 1910, I find Ella who is then widowed and living with her daughter Louise. Ella was born May 28, 1840 and will die in Salt Lake City later that year on December 3, 1910.
He is 46 VT RI VT, and lives with his sister Lydia Taft 45 VT RI VT and her husband M. (Moulton) A. Taft 46 VT RI VT. He was here with them in 1870 too. See that entry for who their folks are.
She is 15 VT a servant to the Arthur family.
He is 23 VT, Mary Bergen his wife 24 VT and Grace 1 VT. He is a son of George Charles Putnam and Martha Hurlburt. He was born in Charlotte on April 1, 1857. They will be in Worcester, Mass. in a few years and remain there through 1910.
He is 40 MA MA MA. He is a minister of the gospel.
He is 59 VT VT VT, Cordelia Dickinson 48 VT VT VT. He was in Lamoille County in 1860 and 1870. He is a son of Asa Putnam and Elizabeth Gallop
She is 69 VT MA MA and lives with her brother Carmin Osgood and his family. She is Anna Osgood, now the widow of Aaron Putnam. They have been here for ages. She’ll be here with her kinfolk in 1900 at age 89.
Juliette Chapin is 56 VT VT NH, Emma 26 VT, Mary 23 VT, Myron 21 VT and Sydney 15 VT. He was married to Haman Putnam and was widowed here with the kids in 1870 as well.

He is a son of Joel Putnam and Esther Howe from Cambridge, Lamoille County. He was married to Laura Augusta Safford, and then widowed by 1870 when he was back with his folks. He married Celinda in 1872, and all these kids are with her. The couple of kids from his first marriage are still at home with his folks in Cambridge.
He is 44 VT VT VT, Malinda Smith 39 VT VT VT and Ethel G. 2 VT. Now, as to Lovell. I don’t find him earlier. He should be a son of Luther and Rhoda (Fullington) Putnam. That family was from Franklin County in the 1830s and in Chittenden County in the 1840s. Luther died there in early 1850 and the family dropped out of sight in 1860 and then he was in Chittenden County in 1870. Lovell was born in 1836 and married Betsy Joy in Westford, Chittenden County February 6, 1861. She died there in August 1866. It looks as if Lovell married Malinda in the late 1870s. She will die April 1, 1888. Once again never see him before or later.
He is 28 VT VT VT, Alice Eldred 22 VT VT VT, Cora 5 VT, Nora 4 VT, Flora 2 VT and Fred 3/12 VT. He is a son of Alvah Sabine Putnam and Martha Call from Chittenden County and then here in Franklin County. He’ll be here in 1900, but listed as Burton (his middle name) then.
He is 60 VT NH NH, Martha 54 CAN MA MA. Interesting. He is also listed in Swanton and states he is widowed. Best guess is that this listing was taken, and Martha died very shortly afterwards. Then he moved. Don’t know why Carl isn’t listed here though.
She is 17 VT VT VT a servant with a Bulton family. She is Alvah’s daughter listed as Mary 7 in 1870.
He is 30 VT VT VT, Henrietta Tracy 25 VT, Cornelia 4 VT, Elmer 3 VT. Also there is Henrietta’s mother, Elizabeth Tracy 55 VT. He is a son of Alvah and Martha from Underhill, Chittenden County. He’ll be here in 1900, but with what looks to be a new wife.
She is 33 CND VT NH, Lena S. 6 VT, Minnie A. 4 VT and Bessie
E. 1 VT. She is living with Jacob and Sarah Huntley, her parents. The census
indicates she is still married. She is the wife of Emerson Sanford Putnam and
will show up with him in 1910 VT in Newfane, Vermont. I can’t find them in
1900. They were married on January 21, 1871 in Underhill, VT. She will die on
January 2, 1911 in Newfane.

(listed as Luther in 1870) 10 VT. They are children of his son Luther and his first wife Laura Safford. Luther is now in Chittenden County with his second wife Laura Kinsley and a new set of kids. Joel’s son Safford Luther was born March 21, 1870. He will marry Harriet ‘Hattie’ D. McClure and they will have a daughter Anna born in 1896. He will die here October 14, 1898. Hattie and Anna are boarding here in Cambridge in 1900. By 1910 she has married Oren Otis and they are all in Essex County New York in 1910.

He is now 46 VT VT VT, Sarah Ann 56 ENG, Hollis A. 19 VT. There is also William W. Griswold 19 VT listed as a son in law. He would be or have been married to Henry’s daughter Ida who is missing now. Actually she would only be 12 years old so is probably hiding.
Hiram S. Jr. is now 47 VT VT VT, Olivia F. 43 VT, Belle A. 18 VT, Edward E. 12 VT, Gertrude M. 6 VT.

She is 21 VT VT VT, a student and boarding. She is Abel’s daughter and was at home in 1870 listed simply as Nora age 11.
Still here in Wolcott. This is the third straight year he has stated he was born in New York. I guess he is right. That means that Reuben and Louisa ventured across the border in the late 1830s for a couple of years, but were here in the 1830 through 1850 census. Anyway, Orrin is 45 NY VT VT, Carrie M. Davenport 44 VT VT VT, Mattie 14 VT, Emma L. 12 VT, Katie l. 9 VT, and Gertie B. 1 VT. Orrin was born in 1936 and will die here January 22, 1909. Carrie will die here May 5, 1900.

She is 40 VT VT VT and living with a Jones family. She was working with another family here in 1870. Can’t find her in 1850 or 60 so no idea how she fits in.
Joel is 56 VT VT VT, Lydia 49 NH NH VT. Then there is Eliza Grove 73 VT MA VT, and a peddler, Stedman Brown 51 VT NH VT. They are listed as ‘other.’ But based on the specs, Eliza could be Lydia’s mommy. In 1900 Lydia is widowed, but still living with Stedman. He might possibly be kin as well. At any rate, this guy here is a son of Joel Putnam and Mindwell Tucker.
He is now 55 VT VT VT,and his son Frank S. (Franklin Samuel) is 19 VT. His wife Lucinda has died in the past 10 years. He has a housekeeper Sarah A. Bishop 59 NH VT VT with him. Sam is another son of Joel and Mindwell.

His dad was from Canada, but wasn’t (but should have been) listed in 1840 and 1860. Not sure of his line, but this is the right Stephen.

He was here in 1860 with Mary Ann. Then in 1870 he was missing and all the kids were wards of the state. He’s back now. He is 53 VT MA MA and his daughter Arletta is 18 VT VT VT.
She is 26 VT VT VT, and lives with her sister Harriet Aldrich also 26 VT and her husband Wilbur Aldrich. They are daughters of Hiram Augustus Putnam and Harriet Cushing from Rochester. Jennie is actually only 16 as she was 6 in 1870. Again, sloppy census taking.

Lois is widowed in 1900.
Wesley George is 34 VT VT VT, Mary Ann 34 VT VT VT. They are listed as son and daughter of John D. Ward 62 VT and Esther A. Ward 56 VT. The Wards are Mary Ann’s folks. Wesley is a son of Orin (1173) and Sarah Putnam of Weathersfield. The family moved to Charlestown, New Hampshire and they were there in 1860. I don’t find the family in 1870 in either state. In 1900 he is 55 and has a new wife Nellie who is only 36.
He is 13 VT VT VT and works on the farm of Hiram and Sarah Gould. Looks like a dual listing for Timothy Marble’s son listed with him in 1870 and 1880 as George H. His mother is a Gould and these are probably kinfolk.
She is 25 VT VT VT and a housekeeper with Granville and Addie Knight. She is a daughter of Jonas Putnam and Mary Jane Rowe from West Windsor.

Harriet Burnham is 72 VT CT CT and lives alone. She is the widow of Laban Putnam. Been here all their lives.
In the 1900, we get the month and year these folks were born. But, they are not always accurate. The census taker recorded the age and month born. It was later that the year was added, so the year may be off by one year either way. Indexing and using the Soundex, was done as a make-work project in FDR’s Administration. It was also used to determine when and how much money was needed in the then new Social Security System.
ARTHUR G. (GEORGE)

CHARLES PUTNAM Shoreham, Addison County
He is 28 NY Sep 1871, and the son in law of Nathan Terrill. So far so good, then there are these 4 folks all listed as Putnams: Ida B. 18 VT, Florence 14 VT, Minerva 6 VT and Annie just born in June 1900. Ida Belle Terrill is his wife of 1 year and Annie is their daughter, but I have no idea who the others are, probably siblings. Best I can determine is that Charles is the son of Adam Putnam and Pauline Monroe from Hague, Warren County, New York. They will be nearby in Chittenden County in 1910, back here in 1920 and then back in Hague, Warren County NY where he was born by 1921 and be there in the 1930. Dutch family. His line is Charles > Adam > Aaron > John A. > Arent V. > Victor J. > Jan Putman.

In 1880 he is at home with his parents, Abraham Putnam and Mary Etta Moak in Cherry Valley, Otsego County, New York. At that time he is listed as Ethelbert, but he uses Adelbert or Thelbert now and again in 1910 and 1920. Abraham was a son of William Putman and Perlina Brown. This is a Dutch family originally from Montgomery County, New York. Near as I can figure, he is about the only non New England Putnam guy in this state.
