Notes

He went to Canada when young. He was a physician and farmer, faithful worker in the Methodist Church, "one of God's best men."

He moved to Canada when 21 years old. He had studied medicine, but gave up the profession on account of ill health. For about nine years he had a farm near Smith's Falls, Ontario; then bought a 640 acre farm near Westport, Ontario where he followed farming for 21 years. Finally he settled in Minden, Ontario. He was a Methodist in religion and Conservative in politics. He was always known as Dr. Puffer and acquired a reputation for setting broken limbs, etc.
