    Notes:

    He was a soldier in the French War, 1762 at Halifax, Capt. Tim. Hamant' s company. He was also a soldier in the Revolution in Capt. Samuel Cowell's company, Col. Haw's regiment in 1778, also in Captain Jeremiah Smith's company, Col. John Smith's regiment. The federal census of 1790 shows that Matthias Puffer was at Society Land, Hillsboro County (NH), and had in his family two males over sixteen, two under that age and two females. The history of Weare, NH relates a story of an encounter with a bear. Matthias was splitting oars when a bear came into view. He struck the bear which retaliated with a blow that broke Puffer's arm. The bear escaped. The same work states that he was a shingle "weaver" by trade, and also calls him a blacksmith, having a shop on Sugar Hill. He was sued in 1787 by Nathaniel Fifield, and the town voted to defend the suit. He must have gone to Maine soon afterward.

    (Ed Note: the "Descendants of George Puffer.." book incorrectly attributes 2 additional marriages to him. Those marriages are correct for Matthias Puffer (1715-1806) Ref #23 in the book and this tree- DMC)
