I always heard they were forced off of the mountain by the government. The log cabin that was at Puffenbarger Pond was taken apart and moved down to Brushy Fork Road (Sugar Grove) where it was re-assembled. It still sits on our property today. The family graveyard is close to the pond and has the grave of Benjamin Wesley Puffenbarger who I think is my husband's     great great-Grandfather.
