Margaret Louse Putnam(1895-1978)


Margaret Louise Putnam was born on October 18th, 1895 in Oakfield, ME to Amos Putnam and Cora Margaret Carpenter.  She lived with the family and became a teacher once she became an adult.  On August 20th, 1924 she married Fred Harold Greaves in Houlton, ME.  He was a merchant at a grocery store.  


The couple had a child, Stanley Putnam Greaves(1927-2003) in Houlton, ME on June 30th, 1927.  Soon after this, they moved to Sherman, ME.  The 1930 U.S. Census shows them living in Sherman.  They may have had a second child, but the census record has it lined out, so I am not sure of the story.


Margaret died in Houlton, ME on May 5th, 1978 and is buried in Evergreen Cemetery.

Her Children:

Stanley Putnam Graves(1927-2003)


He is buried in Fairmont Cemetery in Presque Isle, ME.  There is a write up about him on Find a Grave.
