• Notes

  "Andrew Putman" was known as "Andreas Boudemont" in German records and as "Andre Baudemont," by his signature on the ship Osgood list. According to Evangelisch Kirche records, he was born in Bayern, Pfalz, Rohrbach-Steinweiler, the son of Philipp Boudemont and Maria Magdalene Pouchet or Buchell. Andrew married Catherine Barbara Bourgey on January 10, 1747, in Rohrbach. He and his young family sailed to America on ship "Osgood," captained by William Wilkie, from Rotterdam, last from Cowes, with 480 other passengers, arriving in Philadelphia on September 29, 1750. Andrew acquired land 12 miles south of Eakles' Mills, Hagerstown, Washington Co., MD. His grants and purchases were comprised of 142 acres which he called "Partnership" and "Resurvey on Roots Hill." He became a naturalized citizen on September 24, 1762 after being baptized at the German Reformed Church of Frederick Town by the reknown Reverend William Otterbein. Andrew and Catherine worked hard on the sucessful farm estate and raised the following children: John Frantz Putman (md. Sarah Schneider), Peter Putman, (md. Anna Maria Snyder), Elizabeth Putman (md. John Dull), Mary Magdalina Putman (md. Henry Bruner), Amelia Putman (md. Christian Wyandt), Susanna Putman (md. Henry Baker), Catherine Putman (md. Adam Schneider), and Andrew Putman (md. (Anna Elizabeth Lenhart). Andrew Putman's will was probated and recorded on June 14, 1777. His son-in-law, Adam Schneider took over the homestead in 1779. Andrew's wife Catherine was to have use of the farm until her death in 1793. In 1783, the estate was sold to the heirs of Christian Weyandt and remained in the family until at least 1919. The original wooden farm house was still standing in the 1920s and was occupied by the Snyder family, descendants of Andrew. Andrew and Catherine are "buried in Kefauver's Apple Orchard", probably near their estate. FindaGrave
