James Putnam was the son of Samuel Putnam, both of whom left Worchestor MASS at the start of the American Revolution in 1775. Samuel Putnam was actually the lawyer Adams articled under around 1758-60. Why some suggest he articled under John Putnam is anyone`s guess; but it could be to hide the fact Samuel was associated with Gov. John Wentworth, another friend of Adams, both of whom were considered traitors in the Revolution. Unless Adams knew another James Putnam, its unlikely he had any relationship with Samuel`s son James.
