NOTES
1). Birth Date Recorded as 23 Mar 1657 in Derby, p. 7. Birth Date Recorded as 26 Jan 1657 by BJ Hinshaw, hinshaw@localnet.com . John Putnam s farm was in the part of Danvers west of Hathorne s hill near the log bridge across Ipswich river. the farm, or part of it, is now owned by George H. Peabody, Esq. In this immediate vicinity, his cousins, Deacon Edward and Sergeant Thomas Putnam, lived. During the witchcraft excitement, he was constable, and, of course, must have taken a more or less active part in the proceedings. At one time, Mercy Lewis, one of the afflicted girls , had been living in his house as a servant and in May 1692, he testifies, apparently in good faith, as to a fit she had when bewitched. It was at a church meeting at his house in 1698 that several of the wronged members of the church again met with the majority and all agreed to live in love together . This occurred a week after the ordination of the Rev. Joseph Green. Besides the office of Constable, John Putnam was frequently tithing man, surveyor of highways, especially towards Ipswich road, and was appointed to other minor positions. Rev. Marion Putnam chick putnam@netally.com was apparently a source for some of this information.
