    Notes:

    Esther was very pious and strict with her children. It is related that when the children picked apples to eat on Sunday, she forbade their eating them, because they were gathered on the Sabbath and, when her hired girl cooked some greens that she had picked on Sunday, Mrs. Baldwin made her throw them away. Another instance of her ideas of bringing up children is told. Dr. Elijah Baldwin when a boy did not like brown bread and milk and when he finally declined to eat a meal of it, his mother said: "Very well, I will set it away till you are hungry." When he asked for food again, she brought out the same brown bread and milk and he again refused to eat it. She put it away again and placed it before him next morning. The milk was sour and he turned away from his breakfast in disgust, but it was kept for him and served again until the poor child finally had to eat the stuff before his mother would allow him to eat anything else.

Timothy Puffer had to be an affluent man as he was mentioned several times as holding many farms in the Blue Corners area in those days."
