Sarah Putnam
(18 Mar 1743 - 18 Sep 1824)
Eben p 136 says that Sarah, b 18 Mar 1743 of Cornelius and Elizabeth (Nelson) Putnam married Captain Archelaus Putnam # 432 on 16 Oct 1765.
==============
For many years I thought the wife of Capt Archelaus Putnam was Sarah dau of Samuel Putnam (1723-1776) and Sarah Nurse (1722-1777). I don't know why I thought this way...I will have to research my old notes and see what I did, but as of Dec 2012 I discovered that A W Putnam lists in the History of Sutton, Sarah, Dau of Cornelius Putnam and Elizabeth Nelson Perkins.
Capt Archelaus would have been A W's grt gradfather so he should have known of her. She died one month before he was born so it is possible he heard of her as he grew up.
Cornelius (4) Benjamin (3) Nathaniel (2) John (1)
I'm not sure how I got Samuel as both Eben and A W say Cornelius but I will look through my old notes and keep Cornelius for now.

Death

Residence (family)
Archelaus purchased land and buildings on the shore of Demond (Evens') Pond in Rutland from Wm. & John McClanathan, in 1795. The sale of nearly 300 acres for 800 pds. was registered 30 April. We can presume Archelaus and Sarah moved from Sutton to the farm in Rutland soon afterward, as he was listed as the owner and occupant of 40 perches valued at $190 in the Massachusetts and Maine 1798 Direct Tax listing.[In land area measurement, there are 160 perches in one acre. The perch is a unit of measurement used in the English system, while the acre is used in the U.S. customary and imperial systems.]
