      I'm confused on Martha Patty Putnam, born 25 Nov 1777 in Brookfield, MA, one genealogy says she married Joel Whipple on 18 Jan 1803 (intentions) and died 29 Oct 1836 in Hardwick, VT, the other genealogy says Martha Patty Putnam born 25 Nov 1777 Brookfield, MA married Col. Benjamin Tupper and died 1842 in Putnam County, OH.  Both genealogies say she had several children by both!!!!  Maybe Martha and Patty were Twins??


      !SOURCE: Email from Peter Eaton (email hidden) to the Whipple Website, 5 Oct 2019: "Martha Putnam’s parents were Benjamin Putnam and Martha Mason. She was born 25 Nov 1782 in Grafton, MA. Her tombstone is in the Bailey/Hazel cemetery at Hardwick, VT. The tombstone indicates she died 29 Oct 1836 at age 54 ye ... "

      !SOURCE: Email from Peter Eaton (email hidden) to the Whipple Website, 21 Nov 2019: "Priscilla and Francis Whipple are buried beside Martha and Joel Whipple in the Bailey/Hazen Cemetery, Hardwick, VT. There is one other buried with them, I believe his name is Charles and died in his 20’s."
