Notes:

Akron, MI

"Charles junior, the second oldest child now became the breadwinner of the family (father was fighting in the Civil War, older brother Chauncey had left). We are not sure of his age when he first went to work in the woods, but we know that he was experienced in lumbering by the time he was 14 years of age. Lumbering was the only work available for youngsters who wanted to earn cash." Ruth La Bounty Puffer

"When he grew up Charles, Jr. loved to tell a story about himself and a bear. His only pair of pants needed mending and while his mother mended them he went outside in the woods. Then he saw a bear come out of the woods and go after their only pig. Knowing that the pig was their only source of meat, he ran after the bear and scared him away. The bear must have thought that he was a little bear too. Anyway the pig was saved." Ruth La Bounty Puffer

Notes:

"He was a forestry worker in MI, following the lumber industry, moving to new areas as the timber gave out in worked-over forests. They lived back and forth across the border between Ontario, Pennsylvania, and New York State. All 4 children were born in Ontario, but most of their growing up was in Cross Fork, PA, a community no longer in existence. Maude mentioned going to school in Comber, Ontario, so they must have lived there before Cross Fork. The timber gave out, the town caught fire and so the family returned (1910-1911?) to Windsor, where William found employment building the new Ford plant. When that was completed, he worked in the factory till April 12, 1929, he came home from work, sat down and immediately died from a heart attack." Ruth La Bounty Puffer.

Birth:
"Was probably born in the Windsor, MI area and had at least three siblings: Luella (Aunt Lou), Lillian (Aunt Lil) who died in 1924, and Jane (Aunt Jennie) who married Harold Horning. They had no children. Aunt Lou, unmarried, always made her home with the Hornings, living mostly in the Chicago area."
