    Notes:

    He settled early at Ashby, and became a very prominent citizen. He was elected assessor at the first town meeting and was selectman for many years. He lived for a time in Templeton before his marriage and sold land there Oct. 25, 1765, to Abel Hunt and, June 19,1766, to Jonathan Baldwin and, April 11, 1766, to Thomas Sawyer (W.D.54-642; 55-376, 642). He was in Fitchburg in 1766. He was soldier in the French and Indian War in the Canadian Expedition, 1758, in Capt. Cobb's company, Col. Preble's regt., as shown by Capt. Ezekiel How's bill for victualling the company; How kept the Wayside Inn.

    He was also a soldier in the Revolution, enlisting Jan 29, 1776, for two months. His will was dated in 1774, bequeathing to wife Sarah and children. his wife was guardian of children Jacob, Sarah and Lucy, Sept. 19, 1780, and Samuel Gibson, her brother, was appointed their guardian afterwards.

    He was selectman 1768, 1769 and 1771. Both he and Mrs Puffer were members of the First church (Congregational) in the adjoining town of Fitchburg; they, however, became dissatisfied with the "principles of the church in baptizing infants and in practicing the way they did to admit members," and the church record of Sept 6, 1776 shows that the the pastor and two brethren were appointed a committee "to discourse with Brothers Jacob Puffer and Stephen Gibson and their wives for absenting from our communion;" it further shows that "none of them could be recovered, and upon desire of said Puffer and his wife they were dismissed."

    He and his family of 6 appear in the 1800 Federal Census in NY

    On a NY Tax Assessment Roll, 1801, for Thurman, NY his surname is a strange combination of Pieffer or Puffer. However, the enumerator never misses dotting his 'i's in other names and no dot appears in the name.
