Elisha PUTNAM

1715 - Abt 1758  (42 years)

• Name	Elisha PUTNAM  [1, 2]
  	Elisha Putnam lived in Sutton, or in that part of the town now called Oxford. During the French and Indian War he served in the Provincial army and during the campaign of 1758 against Ticonderoga, he lost his life. Great number of the provincial troops were killed or lost during this campaign, as the commander of the expedition, Gen. Abercrombie, was not only a coward in battle but an incompetent leader. The assault on Ticonderoga was continued all day by the Provincials and Regulars and over 1,900 were slain. [1]
