In 1738 Edward Putnam Jr, was chosen deacon of the church there; he was also the first town clerk and one of the first selectman. "On 4 May 1734, Edward Putnam Jr, of Middleton, husbandman, sells, etc., to Thomas Cave of Middleton a parcel of land and 1/16 part of Iron works standing on Pout Brook Pond, also 1/6 part of stream, hammer, anvil, bellows, etc." (Essex Deeds, 78-5) Edward Putnam's farm was just within the limits of Middleton and here, according to Gen. Rufus Putnam, he died at a good old age. In his will Deacon Edward mentions his children Martha Nurse and Timothy Nurse, heirs Jonathan Nurse and Samuel Swan, late of Reading."
