My life has been a very queer one, and if I do say it myself an exciting one. I have been everywhere and without being foolhardy or reckless in anything have come into more than my share of danger. It began before I was fifteen, for I had already entered the Army. I have a medal of honor for bravery at Chancellorsville, and a noted officer said in his report that the act was one of the bravest of the war. At Gettysburg, I received another medal. This was for serving a gun alone when all the rest of the men were killed or wounded. My captain, in a letter to me, by the way, said that the state of New York has erected a monument upon that very spot, on the left of Pickett's charge about twenty-five feet from where their right rested. I was made a Second Lt.; but the fact is, I was only as big as a pint of cider. There were several other episodes of similar sort during the war, but I was so confoundedly young I did not get my just desserts . . . MORE.

David (Adam, Jacob, Victor, Johannes)

David Putman was born reportedly in New York about 1783.

He had a son named Francis whose name is not a very common. There was a Loyalist Francis Putman who removed to Ontario, Canada, during the time of the American Revolutionary War and had property in Osnabrook, Ontario.

It is a guess that David is a son of Francis Putman's assumed brother Adam Putman.

David named his first son Adam, so David's father may have been Adam Putman of the Mohawk Valley, New York.

David was a ship's captain who sailed the lower Great Lakes. It is widely reported that David and his crew encountered a storm on Lake Erie and were ship wrecked near today's Welland Co., Ontario, Canada. It was here after being marooned that David met and married Dorothy Hainer. The story seems to imply that David was not at first a resident of the area before his ship wreck.

David Putman married Dorothy Hainer about 1806.

In 1811, David and Dorothy Putman had a son named Albert Putman. Dorothy Hainer's parents have been variously have been reported as Derrick, or Richard, Hainer and also Albert Hainer. Because Dorothy and David Putman did not have a son named Richard or Derrick, but they did have a son named Albert. Albert Hainer who was the son of Henry and Dorothy Hainer was likely Dorothy Hainer Putman's father. Richard Hainer also had a daughter Dorothy, but she married it appears a Mr. May and second a Mr. Gildes.

If David Putman and Dorothy Hainer used the Dutch naming practice in giving names to their children, David's father was an Adam, Dorothy's father was an Albert, David's grandfather was a John, Dorothy's grandfather was a Henry, and David's maternal grandfather was a Francis. This fits Adam Putman as the father of David Putman and Albert Hainer as the father of Dorothy Hainer.

The writer of this article, when passing near the Baker Block, yesterday, was accosted by an aged stranger who wished to know it the stone structure across the street was the old Episcopal Church. When assured that such was the fact, the polite stranger remarked, "I attended Church there more than 70 years ago, but in some way it has changed so that I did not recognized the place. When informed that the Church he used to attend fronted on Church Street and was burned in 1836, things began to appear more familiar to the stranger, who proved to be Rev. Aaron I. Putman, a Baptist clergyman from Jasper Co., IN. He was born on his father's farm in Albany Bush, Montgomery Co., on August 25,

1813. There he took his birthday dinner August 25, 1901. He learned the wagon maker’s trade in the shop of Hiram Austin in the Village of Johnstown, in 1832, and there he labored until 1835.

He was baptized by Rev. Abraham Van Horne at Caughnawaga, NY, where he was united in marriage by that minister to Catherine Relyea February 4, 1838. She was the eldest daughterof James and Deborah Relyea, who then resided about three miles easterly from the Village of Johnstown, NY. Mrs. Aaron I. Putman died in Newton Co., IN, July 26, 1898. And there her remains are buried.

When Aaron I. Putman was a boy, his associates in times of high tide used to descend the stairs beneath the old stone church in Johnstown and with long sticks poke Sir William Johnson's casket to see it float upon the water. There was no other casket to be seen within the vault. Aaron I. Putman never engaged in the pastime, which he regarded as a desecration of the tomb. He removed to Cleveland, OH, in 1838, and from there to Fort Wayne, IN, in May 1847. His blacksmith works at Fort Wayne, IN, was burned May 20, 1850, and no insurance.

He then turned his attention to farming in that locality until 1861, when he removed to Newton Co., IN, where he became quite an extensive farmer. He resided there until December 1898 when he removed to Jasper Co., IN, his present home. He was licensed to preach over thirty years ago and was ordained as a Baptist clergyman, October 8, 1884. He has officiated as pastor of various churches in Indiana. He has been pension agent, justice of the peace, and postmaster in Newton Co., IN, for many years. He was born a Whig and has since the dissolution of that party been a staunch Republican. He neither chews, smokes, or drinks whiskey and has no aches or pains. He now wears a badge bearing the title "One in a Million" representing total abstinence. He is a very intelligent gentleman and has a surprising memory. He writes readily without glasses and is a firm believer in future rewards and punishments. After a hearty handshake, a final good-bye, and a fervent "God Bless You," the aged and conscientious Indiana Minister vanished from sight.

He is now stopping with his relatives in this city and expects to return to his home in Indiana about the middle of the present month. . . . Rev. Aaron I. Putman's father was John V. Putman, a farmer, who lived and died in Albany Bush, 3 miles east of

Johnstown. The formers grandfather, Victor A. Putman, was born and reared in Stone Arabia and there married a Ms. . . . [Schultz]. Later, he moved to Tribes Hill near where his remains were first buried on his farm. A few days since his grandson, Rev. Aaron I. Putman caused the remains to be removed to the old part of the Tribes Hill Cemetery where many of the Putmans are buried. The remains of Victor A. Putman were first buried in 1800 on the farm, but when they were removed a few days ago his principal bones were found intact except the loss of one of his teeth. The hinges of his original casket were also found and again re-interred with his bones . . .

Matthias Becker Putman, stands among the foremost of the agriculturist of St. Joseph County who have been instrumental in building up its great farming interest. Matthias is a prominent citizen of Constantine Township, where he owns a large farm on section 36, and is extensively engaged in agriculture. He has one of the finest residences in the township, and his home is very attractive.

Mr. Putman is the son of a pioneer family that was well known here in the early times. Though he was but nine years of age when he accompanied his parents to their new home in the forest depths of Southern Michigan, he may well be denominated a pioneer himself.

Matthias has been a dweller in St. Joseph County and in the Constantine Township, as a boy and a man, for over fifty years, and in that time he has witnessed the wonderful changes that have been brought about by the energy and the indomitable perseverance of the early pioneers and their successors. For they have rendered this one of the richest and most prosperous farming regions in the country, with extensive commercial interest and flourishing towns and cities as well. It must be a pleasant thought to him that he has materially contributed to this prosperity.

Matthias was born in Johnstown, Montgomery County, New York, on 17 March, 1827. He was the seventh of eight children, four sons and four daughters, born to Peter F. and Maria (Becker) Putman. His parents were also natives of Montgomery County, and were born respectively in Johnstown and Florida Townships. They married and settled down in Montgomery County, and all of their children were born there as well.

In August of 1896, they broke up their old home, and with their family came to St. Joseph County as Mr. Putnam having visited here in Michigan in April and had purchased a tract of land in south-eastern Constantine Township, for which he paid $12.50 an acre.

Matthias was a lad of only nine years when he accompanied his parents to this state consequently most of his life has been spent here. He has been as much interested in the progress and growth of the commonwealth of Michigan as if he was a native and was to the manor born. He was reared on a farm, and in the pioneer

influences that he obtained in his early life here, he grew to be a vigorous, self-helpful and capable young man. He adopted the calling to which he was reared, and in following agriculture has accumulated considerable wealth. He owns 300 acres of valuable land all in one body in Constantine Township. He has it under fine cultivation and it is supplied with substantial and commodious buildings for all purposes, and he has the most approved machinery for the lightening of labor.

Matthias Becker Putman and Miss Sarah A. Dickinson were united in marriage on 12 October, 1859, in Florence Township. Mrs. Putman is in many respects a superior woman, and she presides with her characteristic graciousness over her and her husband's commodious well-appointed home, dispensing its hospitalities with a free and a happy heart. She is warmly seconded in her efforts to entertain friends or strangers, by her husband and family.

Sarah A. Dickinson was born in Florence Township, St. Joseph County, on 11 March 1837. She was the eldest of five children three sons and two daughters, born to George and Sarah (Johnson) Dickerson, who were both natives of Yorkshire, England. Her father came to Michigan, and was a pioneer of White Pigeon. His wife came to this country in 1833, and they were married in Gilead, Branch County, Michigan, near the residence of Governor Luce. They began their married life in Florence Township, and continued it there until death did part them. George died 3 May, of 1861, and Sarah died 12 January of 1867. Mrs. Dickinson had been married before her marriage to George Dickinson. She was the widow of John Bowman, who died in England. She had one child by that marriage: daughter Mary, who died in 1868 at White Pigeon, the wife of Johnà J. Davis.

By her marriage to Mr. Dickinson she had five children, Viz George, a farmer in Florence Township; Anna, wife of Charles Kellogg of Florence Township; Richard, in White pigeon Township; Charles, also in Florence Township, and Mrs. Putman.

Mr. and Mrs. Putman are the parents of six children, Viz: Anna, who lives at home; Maria, who died when about two and one half years old; Mary, Nellie, George, and John. Their daughter, Mary, was married at their residence to Frank F. Hotchin of Florence Township on 5 December, 1888, and there was a large gathering of friends to witness the impressive ceremony.

Mr. Putman is a man of clear head and sagacious judgment and possesses weight and influence in the affairs of this community, with which his interest have been bound up for so long. No one is more liberal or public-spirited than he is in encouraging the various schemes for the benefit of the township and the county. He is thoroughly respected for those characteristics that mark the true man and the honest citizen. He has been the School Director for many years, and has held some of the minor offices. In politics he casts his vote with the Democratic Party. Mrs. Putman is a consistent member of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and has been for upward of thirty years.

He and his wife have made their home here for the remainder of their lives. Matthias died here in November of 1858, and Sarah died here several years prior that date.
