William Thomas Putman (May 2, 1899 - Mar 24, 1984)
William Thomas "Bill" Putman was the son of J M Putman and Teresa Price. Records show his birth as 1900. However, he was actually born in 1899. It was changed so he didn't have to fight in WWI. On July 16 1922, he married Sibyl Florence Carden. Sibyl was the daughter of John Thomas Carden and Victoria Testerman Carden. Her parents are buried in the Pea Ridge Cemetery. Both Bill and Sibyl are buried in Pea Ridge Cemetery
