PUTNAM, Elisa[beth], of Salem, and John Porter, at Salem, Feb. --, 1708.
Note: named as Elizabeth Porter in her father's will dated 17 Mar 1738/39. The information found in Source:Putnam, Eben. History of the Putnam Family in England and America : Recording the Ancestry and Descendants of John Putnam of Danvers, Mass., Jan, p. 64, showing Elizabeth with no marriage and dying 8 Aug 1728 is clearly wrong. As is the information found in Source:Wilson, Duane E. Edward Foster Ensworth 1855-1945 and Mary Isabel Johnson 1860-1936 and Some Ancestors, Descendants and Related Families, p. 348, which shows her being the Elizabeth Putnam who married Robert Hutchinson (that was d/o Benjamin).
