CM unknowlngly stumbled upon Downtown Putman County! But, as the old saying goes, 'Chance favors the Blind Hog Looking for an Acorn," luck brought partial answer to one bucket list Riddle of the Ages, 'where exactly, is Putman County?'' as Dawn Baker sends as much clarification as an Outsider can handle: Chimney in photo commemorates the Cleve Burton Homeplace; it is just above famed Blue Hole on Sulphur Creek. Boundaries of Putman, clear to its justifiably proud citizens, will always be a mystery to Outsiders. -ED By Dawn Baker The picture is also part of our Ridgeview Farm. The land on which that chimney stands is known as the Cleve Burton homeplace (Noah Burton heirs). My grandfather, Welby O. Bryant, bought this in 1943 when it became an extension of our farm. Below the chimney, in Sulphur Creek, is the famous "Blue Hole" where all citizens of Putman County learned to swim, congregate, and be mischievous. Yes, Ed, you have found downtown Putman County. Boundaries will always remain a mystery only to outsiders. Dawn Baker, lifelong citizen of "Putman County".
