Adolph is mentioned on several pages of the manuscript; he was the one who compiled it. I have reprinted and indexed this manuscript. Copies are at the Library of Congress, Washington, D.C.; Schenectady Historical Society, Schenectady, New York; Montgomery Historical Society, Fonda, New York; LDS Archives, Salt Lake City, UT; Everton Publishers, Logan, UT; Peoria Public Library, Peoria, Ill.; Will County Historical Society, Lockport, Ill.; IL State Genealogical Society, Springfield, Ill.; and many other genealogical societies. Adolph was appointed as an advisor to
Her Royal Highness, the Princess of Orange and her children, in 1725. This was later made a permanent appointment by His Royal Highness, the Prince of Orange. Here we see a possible connection to the claim of the Mohawk Valley Putmans, that they were indeed connected to the family of the Prince of Orange, of Nassau. His Royal Highness, the Prince of Orange, and her Royal Highness, the Princess of Orange, were both God parents of Adolph and Hermana's son, Willem Putman, who was baptised in their presence, on the 6th. day of March, 1737.
