It appears that the old lady having been sitting by the fire smoking a pipe, a coal had fallen from the fire or her pipe, and that she was burned to death. But on the strength of a vision which her brother John Briggs had, in which she appeared to him after her death and said: ‘See how I was burned with fire.' It was inferred that she was set fire to, and that her son who was last with her did it, and principally on this evidence Thomas Cornell was tried, convicted and hung for her murder...." CORNELL, Thomas Jr. (I21401)

His preparatory education was acquired in the schools of his native place, he graduating from the Natick High School in 1886, president and valedictorian of his class. He then entered Harvard University, took second-year honors in physics in 1887, and was graduated in 1890 with the degree of Bachelor of Arts, magna cum laude, both for general rank and for honors in physics. During his course in school and college, Mr. Nutt did newspaper work for the Natick "Bulletin," Natick "Citizen" and Boston "Evening Record," this experience laying the foundation for his after career in journalism, he having been one of the best known men in that line throughout his section of the State of Massachusetts. In 1890, the year of his graduation from Harvard, he accepted a position as reporter on the staff of the Worcester "Daily Spy," for many years the leading paper in that thriving city, and in the following, year, having gained additional experience, he founded "The Paragraph," in New Rochelle, New York, and later became the owner of newspaper and printing plants at New Rochelle and Mamaroneck, New York. On October 1, 1899, he purchased the Worcester "Daily Spy" and conducted it until June 1, 1904, a period of five years, when it passed out of his hands and was suspended. The plant was destroyed by fire. May 21, 1902, and the loss was disastrous to the business. He disposed of the New Rochelle "Paragrapli," November 1, 1900, and the Mamaroneck "Paragraph" to Charles F. Rice. With thorough training, true journalistic instinct, broad knowledge of affairs, he reflected honor upon his profession, and in his conduct of the various papers with which he was identified he made them the exponent of the highest interests of the community, of the State and of the Nation.

In addition to his journalistic work, Mr. Nutt devoted considerable time to genealogical research, in which he was an expert, and from 1904 until his death was associated with the Lewis Publishing Company, of New York, 'and at the time of his death was watching through the press the later pages of a monumental work which he had already completed—"A History of Worcester," which will be read with great interest by his many friends and acquaintances in Worcester, his adopted city.

Epitaph: "Here rests in hope of a resurrected life the mortal part of Capt. Jabez Puffer who departed this life June 21 A.D. 1789 in the 85th y ear of his age.
"My flesh shall slumber in the ground
Till the last trumpet's joyful sound

25635 He worked for Richard Smith at an Indian trading post in the wilderness of the Narragansett around 1639. This area was called Aquidnesset by the Indians which was shortened to Quidnesset by the colonists. Hence, he is known as John Greene of Quidnesset. Smith and Green at one point threw in their lot with CT during the controversy over which state (CT, MA, RI) controlled the Narragansett probably because the Rhode Island Assembly had sought to void any purchase of land from the Indians without permission of the Assembly. The result was that John Greene was arrested on 11 May 1664. In court John Greene tactlessly spoke his mind offending the court and was forced to retract his statement. He then revised his position and requested that the court pardon his "offense in adhering to the government of Connecticut." This pardon was granted and he was permitted to return home. GREENE, John of Quidnessette (I2139)

25645 Henry Patrick Moran was born to Michael and Julia Puffer Moran on March 17, 1863.
Julia died six days after his birth, consequently, in need of a "wet nurse,"
Henry was raised by Mr. and Mrs. Washington Schell and Mr. and Mrs. Peter Schell of Lake Pleasant, MI (Attica Twp.; Lapeer Co.). On January 2, 1889 he married Mary Viola Hilborn of Speaker; Sanilac County, Michigan.

25647 Henry was a sea captain, also served 7 years in the Royal Navy. He died in Springfield, but had his body shipped back to Paignton, Devonshire for burial-- odd at first glance because his parents were bur in the New World. However the note I have on his gf is "Paignton, Devonshire, buried at sea"-- so perhaps the Royal Naval connection took precedence for him.  CHAPIN, Henry (I19766)
 
25648 Her 4th cousin Family: PETTINGILL, Myron Delos / PUFFER, Sarah Jane (F13814)

25653 Her birth father's name is Solomon Puffer, mother Alice Dyke, according to her death certificate. She was adopted in 1908 by Thomas and Virginia Evans.

25655 Her birth parents are unknown. PUFFER, Hannah (I23424)
 
25656 Her birthday is correct in that she, along with 2 other siblings, were born a few years after their father died. Her mother simply listed her dead husband as the father. Her real paternity is unknown.

Yet, the Iowa State Dept of Health has on record her birth certificate which was an affidavit from her half-sister, Julia. Half-sister?? George, her father was married previously, in 1880, but had no recorded children by her. And to add further mystery, the affidavit states that George was 34 years old when Irma as born. Yet, he was actually dead. 34 years would have made him born in 1859, not 1851 like all records show.

With her siblings, she was raised by her aunt and uncle, Julia Nancy Puffer and George Olmstead. Some records show her with the Olmstead surname, but she's a Puffer, sort of.

PUFFER, Alta Vae (I20663)
 
25659 Her birthday is recorded as in March, 1917, however her mother's obituary states that her mother never saw Lucy before she died. It is possible she was born in March and her mother had a difficult childbirth and died two months later, never seeing Lucy. PUFFER, Lucy Arvilla (I36248)

She passed through great trials and hardships in war times with her large family and sick husband and her two eldest sons in the army, by she came out of it all the same sunny, devoted Christian she has always been, never too tired or busy to go to a friend or neighbor night or day if they needed her. They had the true pioneer spirit and our home was a shelter and refuge for all who needed their help. And they believed in 'freely have you received, freely give.' They were rich only in love and kindness and a big farm that was home to all."

A local newspaper said of her:
"Perhaps no figure in the community was better known or better loved than this beautiful woman whose whole life was one of utter unselfishness and devotion to the interests of those about her. A devout Christian and an old-fashioned mother, who believed that woman's place was in the home, and yet with a vision so broad that she could find good in all things and interest in all people. Her sympathy and love went to every one who needed her assistance and nothing that she could give or do was ever withheld. Such a personality cannot but leave its imprint upon those who knew her, and her spirit like a fragrance will remain to bless and hallow every corner of the old homestead that saw the growth and beauty of her character develop as the years rolled by."

According to some old deeds she's named as Catherine E.
