From A History of the Putnam Family, pages 8–11:198
   
Thomas Putnam, Senior, was an inhabitant of Lynn in 1640; freeman 1642; one of the seven men (selectmen) of Lynn in 1643; admitted to the church in Salem, 3 Apr., 1643.
    The town of Salem granted to him, 20-11-1640, “fifty acres (of upland) and five acres of meddow.” This was at the same time that his father received a grant of one hundred acres from the town (”in exchange of one-hundred acres formerly granted to him”).
    In 1645 the General Court passed the following order: “Mr Thomas Layghton, Edward Burcham, & Thomas Puttman are appointed by this Courte to end smale causes for ye towne of Lynne for ye yeere ensewing” 18 June, 1645. This commission was renewed the 20 May, 1648, “to emd smale cawses, vnder twenty shillings.”
    11th, 9 mo., 1648, he was “Chosen for Gran-Juryman” in Salem and 10-10-1655 was chosen constable of Salem in place of Mr. William Browne. The office of constable at that date earned great authority and covered the entire local administration of affairs.
    He was also the first parish clerk at Salem Village and was prominent in the local military aud ecclesiastical, as well as town affairs.
    Thomas Putnam wrote a very fine hand and had evidently received a good education, as had his brothers. In 1679 he gives to the Rev. James Bayley, upon his retirement from the ministry at Salem Village, three acres of meadow. During the long dispute over Bayley at the Village, Thomas and John seem to have supported Bayley, while Nathaniel was in opposition.
    Thomas Putnam during a number of years held, besides the offices above mentioned, the various positions of “Layer out of highways,” “Inspector of bridges,” “to care for rates for the minister,” etc. On the 29th day, 11mo., 1658, “Jefferey Massey, Thomas Putname, Nath1 Putname and Joseph Hutchensen are Impowered, or any three of them, to joyne with Topsfield about the Runninge & setlenge & full endinge of our sixe mile line in the extent of it in so many places as they shall see meet, for a full conclusion of the worke.” Oct. 8, 1662, the General Court confirms his appointment as Lieutenant in the troop of horse.
    When on the 8th Oct., 1672, the General Court permitted the inhabitants of Salem Farms to become a separate parish, Lt. Thomas Putnam was made chairman of the committee chosen to carry on the affairs of the parish (11 Nov., 1672), and on 25 Nov., 1680, it was voted “that Lt. Thomas Putnam and Jonathan Wolcott supply the place of deacons for year ensueing”; they were continued in office 27 Dec, 1681.
The above is the first mention of deacons in the Village records.
    In 1682 occurs the first list of tax-payers at the Village. There are ninety-four names on this list. The twelve largest amounts are here given set against the names of the persons paying them, also all of the family taxed in that year.
        1. Lt. Thomas Putman, 18£ 6s 3d
        2. Nathaniel Putnam, 9£ 10s 0d

It will be seeu from the above that the three Putnam brothers and their sons-in-law were by far the wealthiest in the “Village” or “Farms.” Besides inheriting a double portion of his fatherss estate, Thomas Putnam by his marriage with widow Mary Veren came into possession of considerable property in Jamaica and Barbadoes. The homestead of Thomas although much enlarged is still standing and is now [1891] known as the “Gen. Israel Putnam house.” This house is situated a little east of Hathorne’s Hill in the northern part of Danvers, not far from the Asylum, and was occupied by his widow in 1692. Here also his son Joseph lived during his opposition to the witchcraft proceedings.
    There was also a town residence in Salem situated on the north side of Essex street extending back to North River, its front on Essex street embraced the western part of the grounds uow occupied by the North Church and extended to a point beyond the head of Cambridge street.
    In his will dated, 8 Feb., 1682/3,, and proved at Boston, 8 July, 1686, he gives the [western] half of the above estate to his son Thomas, the [eastern] half to his son Joseph; another estate on the western side of St. Peter’s street, to the north of Federal, he gives to Edward. To each of his children he gives a large estate in Salem Village and a valuable piece of meadow land. To a faithful servant Joseph Stacey, he gives eleven acres.
    The children by his first wife attempted, unsuccessfully, to break this will, claiming that undue influence was used to obtain for Joseph more than his share of the estate.
    Mr. Upham in his Salem Witchcraft thus suras up the character and position of Thomas Putnam in contrast with his brothers “Possessing a large property by inheritance, he was not quite so active in increasing it, but enjoying the society and friendship of the leading meu lived a more retired life. At the same time he was always ready to serve the community when called for as he often was, when occasion arose for the aid of his superior intelligence and personal influence,” also in writing about the settlement of the “Farms” he says, “The Putnanis followed up Beaver Brook to Beaver Dam, and spread out toward the north and west.”
