I lived there for some years and am currently the president of the Putney Historical Society. Yes, I know the NOYES house, it currently is owned and operated by "Putney Cares" a group that operates is as a congregate living house AHHHaaa, is there a Samuel Lord or Samuel Dickinson house there? <G> I think the Noyes were kin (they were in my Ransom line), certainly one of the Samuel Lords followed him. A son (John R. LOrd), born in Putney, stayed with JHN until long after the end, I was just working on his wife Georgianna Sears LORD today, first time I got a good look at the 1911 Ontario census. Is Lucy Sabin the one who married Benjamin Smith? That Lucy is also a descendant of Joshua Clark Parker R.S. what a fun discussion Ihaven't seen anyone mention the Heminway book that is up at the Vermont website. Now since this is Civil War, why don't we take this Putney discussion to the Vermont list? I sure want to continue it <G> Eliz
