Died of smallpox in New York harbor, was buried on Staten Island. He went to sea. The following account was written by his father:
"November 14, 1835, Josiah P. Puffer sailed for the first time on board the Tam O'Shanter to the West Indies (London-Jamaica). April 19, 1836, he sailed on the Willow (?) to the Grand Banks, Capt. James Needham, and then down into the British Dominion. The same Fall, he started away with Capt. Josiah Gorum and went to Savannah and then Newburyport (?) and back to Savannah and then to lesser ports (?), then to New York and Boston and home and stayed 10 days. He then sailed from Boston in the ship Levant to Batavia and from Batavia to Lintin (?) and from Linton to Batavia, from Batavia to Canton, Canton to Melville Island (LA) and to the Philippine Islands and from there to St. Helena and after passage of 148 days arrived in New York and then shipped on board the ship Yazoo for New Orleans, and back to New York and Boston. Then stayed at home a fortnight and sailed in the Plato to Charleston, SC, and then shipped on board the ship Layfayette for New York and back to Charleston and then shipped as second mate for the brig Arabeau for Liverpool, Eng., and back to Charleston and Boston and then shipped in the brig Tyke(?) as second mate again for Savannah an here I am among the mosquitos up to my eyes. Making in all that I can recollect 32 ports that he has been to in short space of four years and ten months, 13 days." (It is possible that this is copied from a letter of Josiah P. Puffer).
His death was announced in the following letter to his father:
"Dear Brother:
I am sorry to be obliged to communicate the sad news of your son's death. In looking over the papers, I saw it and have cut it out and send it to you. I do not know any of the particulars more than you. He had considerable money in his chest, but has a month's wages in advance and I should think that there was nothing due to him. As to his clothes, I should not think it would be safe to have them brought on, for if he died of any contagious disorder, it would be exposing your family for the same. I hope you will be resigned to your loss and think it is all for the best. In haste, A. Johnson."

From her youth she was a devout member of the Methodist church. "For a whole generation she has been a burning and shining light in the Saxonville charge. For several years past she has been an invalid - a patient trusting sufferer. In her earlier and more active years she was one of the sweetest of singers, and the former pastors of this church will very pleasantly recall, as people do here, her great services in those times on behalf of the public praise in the Lord's house. Sister Harriman was a woman of uncommon intellectual penetration, of strong and steadfast faith and of a most exemplary walk and conversation." (Obituary evidently written by the pastor for a local newspaper.)

Notes:

He attended the public schools of his native town, and Shelburne Falls Academy, and entered Rochester University, from when he was graduated in 1863 with the degree of bachelor of arts. He became a member of the Delta Kappa Epsilon fraternity and was poet at national conventions of the fraternity at Union College, Schenectady, NY, and Bowdoin College, Brunswick, ME. He was also poet of the literary societies as Asbury University, Greencastle, IN at Commencement, 1870.

His business career began in 1864 at Shelburne Falls, where he was cashier of the Shelburne Falls Bank. Subsequently he had a banking house at 16 Nassau St., New York. In 1863 he went to South Carolina, and edited the Columbia Union-Herald, the only Republican daily in the state, and in partnership with Governor Chamberlain was the owner of the newspaper. In 1873-74 he was receiver of the Bank of the State. He was active and prominent in politics and was a prime factor in the nomination and election of Governor D. H. Chamberlain. Naturally he shared with the administration indiscriminate and unstinted condemnation from Democratic sources. He has always been a Republican, but in later years has not been active in party affairs.

Having disposed of his newspaper interests in 1875, he engaged in mining operations in Colorado, and subsequently in 1884 engaged in the manufacture of glass enameled steel tanks at Rochester. Later the business was incorporated under the name of the Pfaudler Company, of which he is now chairman. In connection with its subsidiary companies in Detroit, MI, Schwetzingen, Baden, Germany, and in London, Eng. This concern is the largest in the world in this line of business. On account of the foreign business and especially the plant in Germany, Mr. Puffer has spent much of his time abroad.

He is director of the Central Bank of Rochester and a member of the University Club, the Genesee Valley Club of that city and of the Chamber of Commerce.

In partnership with his brother-in-law, William G. Markham, Mr. Puffer owns a model dairy farm of 400 acres at Rush, NY. "Elm Place" as the farm is known, is the old Markham homestead. From a herd of seventy Holstein cows, a high grade of certified milk is produced.

Charles Chenery, to whom the subscribers to this book owe its existence, died at his home in Avon, NY, Dec 2 1915. On Thanksgiving day he underwent an operation for appendicitis, the immediate cause of death being heart failure. The Rochester Democrat and Chronicle says: "It is said of Mr. Puffer that in his numerous trips up and down Europe he store up a wonderful amount of interesting knowledge of its interesting and historical byways which are little visited by the average traveler and which added great charm to his conversation. His circle of friends in foreign lands was to be as large as that in his home city."

After the Civil War, he managed plantations for the Sea Island Cotton Company in Columbia, South Carolina. They purchased plantations in Beaufort and Hilton Head, South Carolina (summer of 1865). As a carpetbagger in Columbia, Puffer campaigned for the local Republican Party and actively supported Governor Daniel Henry Chamberlain. Later, Puffer moved north and co-owned a dairy farm in Avon, New York, along with his brother-in-law William Guy Markham.

(Ed. Note) An article in the newsletter of the Avon Historical and Preservation Society in 2008 about his daughter, Linda Dana Puffer, mentions that Charles was "lost in the Titanic disaster of 1912..". This fact obviously conflicts with known facts of his death in 1915.- DMC
