UPDATED JULY 15, 2005 THE GERMAN PUTMAN FAMILY Of Andrew Buttman of Maryland In addition to our English Putman/Putnam families, there are two other large groups of Putmans in America.

As with our family, many early settlers in America could not read nor write and their names were recorded the way the sounded to county court clerks who wrote up the early deeds and other papers. It seems that the German Putmans descend from a family in the German Palatinate originally spelled Boutemont which was French and then later 'Germanized' to Buttman, and then 'Anglicized' in America to Putman as the German B sounds like the English P. Boutemont was pronounced Bootmon which changed quickly to Putman here. The first of the family to come to America was Andreas or Andrew.

    THE GERMAN PUTMAN FAMILY Of Andrew Buttman of Maryland

    In addition to our English Putman/Putnam families, there are two other large groups of Putmans in America. One German and one Dutch. This is a brief early history of the German Putman Family in America. As with our family, many early settlers in America could not read nor write and their names were recorded the way the sounded to county court clerks who wrote up the early deeds and other papers. It seems that the German Putmans descend from a family in the German Palatinate originally spelled Boutemont which was French and then later 'Germanized' to Buttman, and then 'Anglicized' in America to Putman as the German B sounds like the English P. Boutemont was pronounced Bootmon which changed quickly to Putman here. The first of the family to come to America was Andreas or Andrew. He came on the ship Osgood and landed in Philadelphia on September 29, 1750. On September 25, 1751 Philip Boudemont arrived in Philadelphia on the Phoenix from Rotterdam by way of Portsmouth, England. Based on a great deal of research by Dick Heller of Mission, Texas and Patricia McKinna of Houston, Texas, Bettie Cornell of Frederick, Maryland, and Bill and Betty Eynon we are able to begin to sort out the early history of this family. The Boudemonts were French Huguenots that had fled just across the border into Germany in the early 1600s. The name was originally Boutemont and that was changed into the more Germanic spelling like many others in the Paletinate area of Southwest Germany on the French Border. The earliest member of the family we can trace was Jacob Boudemont. JACOB BOUDEMONT Jacob was born about 1660 in northern France. He married Jeanne Daudigny in Chevennes, Aisne, Picardie, France. They had a daughter Jeanne born July 8, 1678 there. They left France for Germany in about 1680. They left France because their Huguenot beliefs were not accepted by the then French king. They settled near Rohrbach, Pfalz, Germany and seem to have remained there the rest of their lives. Jacob had at least one son, Phillip. PHILLIP BOUDEMONT

  • Phillip Boudemont was born in Muhlofen in the German Palatinates near Rohrbach on July 28, 1685. Phillip was married to Maria Magdalene Buchell in about 1707 in Rohrbach. They lived in Rohrbach, Kreis Berggzabern, Germany. Phillip died in Rohrbach January 27, 1762. Maria was born in 1686 in Minfeld and died in Rohrbach March 5, 1741. This information comes from Betty Eynon. Phillip and Mary Magdelene Boutemont had four children: MARIA MAGDALENA BOUDEMONT born February 14, 1710.

    PHILIP JACOB BOUDEMONT born in December 1711, christened December 25, 1711. His wife was Maria Elizabeth (no last name that I have. He went to America a few years after his brother Andreas. ANDREAS BOUDEMONT born in June 1716, christened June 10, 1716. He is covered next. JOHAN PHILIP BOUDEMONT born and christened August 4, 1722. He married Anna Catharina Gebauer in Rohrback June 10, 1749. He remained in Rohrbach until his death on November 3, 1792.

    ANDREW PUTMAN of Maryland & Pennsylvania Much of what I have on this family, which is well documented comes from an early family history of the ANDREW PUTMAN, CHRISTIAN WYANDT & ADAM SNYDER FAMILIES by the Reverend E. C. Wyand written around 1915, and from a later GENEALOGY OF THE PUTMANS written in 1949 by Charles Ross Shultz. Recent work by Dick Heller has added much to this information base. Research back in Rohrbach by Bill and Betty Eynon have filled in more details. Andrew Putman was born in Rohrbach in the German Palatinate region near the French border on June 10, 1716 as Andreas Boudemont. The name was Anglicized to Putman shortly after arrival in Pennsylvania. I have the following from Mrs. Della Shafer of Haysville, Kansas written in the PUTMAN FAMILY NEWSLETTER published by Warren Putman: "Our ancestor ANDREW PUTMAN was born in Rohrbach in the Bavarian Palatinate on June 10, 1716, the son of Philip and Maria Magdalene BOUDEMONT. On January 10, 1747, at the Reformed Church in Rohrbach, he was married to Catherine Barbara BOURGEY, daughter of Nicholas BOURGEY, a resident of nearby Mohrfelden. These villages are in southwestern Germany, halfway between Kaiserslautern and Karlsrhue not far from the French border. You will note that these two names seem to be French. Large numbers of French Huguenots had fled to Germany in the late 1600s when the French Protestants were being persecuted for their beliefs." In talking with Mrs. Shafer, I found the source was Dick Heller's work. After landing in Philadelphia, Andrew Putman and other Germans made their way southwest to

  • new lands in Maryland. Andrew was baptized on September 5th, 1762 by the Reverend Otterbein at the German Reformed Church of Frederick Town. He was naturalized later that month on September 24th in Frederick and began farming in the Middletown Valley, Frederick County. Andrew's brother, Philip, had settled in this area several years earlier. The family moved to Washington County in 1770 settling on a 50 acre tract of land called Root's Hill which he bought from Joseph Chapline on December 18th, 1769. He also purchased an additional tract referred to as Partnership which was part of the resurvey of Root's Hill and was included in the original deed. The area is near Eakles Mills, Maryland. Not much more is known about Andrew Putman except for the will he left in 1777 which named his wife and children. He apparently was ill when he wrote his will on February 4, 1777 and it was probated on June 14, 1777 after his death in Washington County, Maryland. His wife Catherine was to have the use of the farm until her death. The farm was later sold by the heirs to Christian Wyandt who farmed the land and cared for Catherine Putman, his mother in law. This original wooden farm house was still standing in the 1920s and was occupied by the Snyder family, Andrew's descendants. After Andrew Putman's death, most of the children moved north into Somerset County in Pennsylvania just above the Maryland line. Later many members of the family moved westward to Ohio and then spread out all across America. The following is what I know about the children of Andrew and Catherine Putman. Virtually everything that follows comes from the Charles Schultz book. I have only gone out three generations, Shultz brought each up to the time of publication in many, many cases. Those interested should read the entire book. Della Shafer has made an index of this book which is a great help. John Putman John appears to be the eldest son. He served in the Pennsylvania Militia during the Revolutionary War. He was born January 29, 1748 in Germany and died in 1799. His wife was Sarah Schneider and she was still living in 1810. John Putman was the first of Andrew's children to settle in Somerset County. He owned lands in both Somerset and Milford townships. He was both a farmer and a distiller. His farm was some 160 acres, and after the estate was settled it was acquired by his son Henry. The distillery went to his son John. His children were:
