Hi Betty,
It has been sometime since I have talked with Jim. So are you taking over the
writing of the New Cady Book? Do you have the information on my Elizabeth
Cady Puffer, missing d/o Ebenezer and Prudence ?
If you are doing the book, and you do not have my info, please let me
know.....I cannot document that Elizabeth is d/o of Ebenezer and Prudence, but with
all info from Berkshire Co. Historical Society who traced the Cady's in that
area, they saw that the Puffer's and the Ebenezer and Prudence Cady's lived in
the same area's....including Schenectady Co. NY and Seneca Co. NY.
The will of Dr. Timothy Puffer's widow, Mary, shows they were looking for the
children of a Waterman Cady.......I wonder, oh I wonder if this could be a
child of David and Zilpha (Waterman) Cady??? Is it possible that Zilpha had a
son before she died and David gave him to Dr. Timothy and Elizabeth to raise????
Speculation...but with what I have you will be convinced that Elizabeth Cady
Puffer, was indeed the youngest daughter of Ebenezer and Prudence.
Warm regards,
June L. Beckwith
