Research Notes

  • It appears the civil war record of service belongs to William R. Putnam not this William H. Putnam
  • Civil War veteran of the 6th Regiment NH Infantry which appears to be in error as the record shows middle initial as “R”
  • It appears Hiram and William (brothers) married Lucy and Lydia (the Bryant Sisters)
