- 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. 58, says Elizabeth Putnam, d/o Capt. Benjamin Putnam, m. 1711 Robert Hutchinson, b. 1687, and had a daughter and a son named Robert. Then it says that Robert Hutchinson Sr. [presumably the same man but Sr. added to distinguish him from his son], m. (2) 1717 Sarah Putnam. The widow Sarah declines to administer in favor of William Shillaber, who married the daughter from the first marriage, Sarah. The widow, Sarah Hutchinson, is most likely the one who m. 1735 Ebenezer Proctor, b. 1702. There is no indication of who Sarah Putnam is, though probably born sometime in the 1690s based on the ages of her husbands and date of her first marriage.
*Sarah Putnam, d/o James, b. Danvers 1686, named Sarah Porter in her father's 1727 will, having m. Israel Porter.
*Sarah Putnam, d/o Thomas, b. 1689, d. 1689, another Sarah b. Salem 1693, d. 1694.
*Sarah Putnam, d/o John, b. Salem 1693, is named only as Sarah in her father's 1722 will, and assumed unmarried by Putnam' History.
*Sarah Putnam, d/o Joseph, b. Salem 1697, is named as Sarah Brown in her father's 1730 will, having married Eleazer Brown.
A handful of sources, such as Source:Wilson, Duane E. Edward Foster Ensworth 1855-1945 and Mary Isabel Johnson 1860-1936 and Some Ancestors, Descendants and Related Families, p. 348, suggest that Sarah is "half sister of first wife". However, this particular source mis-identifies the first wife Elizabeth. Further, neither the correct Elizabeth, nor the incorrect one, appear to have a sister or half-sister Sarah.
