IOWA
ITS HISTORY AND TRADITION
VOLUME III
1804-1926
C. L. PUTNAM
Dr. Chester Lloyd Putnam, physician and surgeon, is practicing at Holstein,
in which he has made his home for thirteen years, and his success has been
commensurate with his industry and ability. He was born September 19, 1886, in
the vicinity of Knoxville, Iowa, and represents a family that was established in America as early as 1634. His parents were William Franklin and Mary Ann (Rizar) Putnam, the latter of German descent. The mother was born July 22,
1848, in Ohio, and the father's birth occurred September 1, 1846, in Epworth, Iowa.
Dr. Putman was reared on the home farm in Marion county and attended the
public schools of Knoxville. Choosing a professional career, he entered the
college of medicine of the University of Iowa and was graduated June 12, 1912,
with the M. D. degree. He opened an office in Holstein in May, 1913, and is
now enjoying a large practice. He has made a close study of human nature as
well as the technicalities of his profession and has won the confidence and
trust of his patients by quiet, conscientious and effective work.
On June 3, 1913, Dr. Putnam was married in Alta, Iowa, to Miss Susie Esther
Emorine, daughter of James E. and Sarah Elizabeth (Burke) Emorine, the latter
of whom is a native of Baltimore, Maryland. Mr. Emorine has passed away.
Dr. and Mrs. Putnam are the parents of a son, William James, who was born
September 14, 1914, in Holstein.
Mrs. Putnam was born June 3, 1891, at Early, Iowa. She belongs to the
Woman's Club of Holstein and is a past matron of the local chapter of the Eastern
Star. The Doctor has taken the thirty-second degree in the Masonic order and
has been master of his lodge. He is president of the Community Club and a
member of the Ida county board of education, enlisting his talents as readily
for the public zeal as for his own success. He is affiliated with the
Presbyterian church and casts his ballot for the candidates of the republican
party. Dr. Putnam is a progressive exponent of his profession and possesses all
of the qualities of a useful and desirable citizen.
