==History==
Founded in 1804 by Abraham Stouffer, the hamlet was originally named ''Stoufferville''. Stouffer built a sawmill and grist-mill on the banks of Duffin's Creek in the 1820s.〔http://www.heritagefdn.on.ca/userfiles/HTML/nts_1_5626_1.html Ontario Heritage Trust Founding of Stouffville〕 The community name was shortened to Stouffville when its first post office opened in 1832.〔For a complete history of the community of Stouffville, see Jean Barkey, (Stouffville, 1877-1977 A Pictorial History of a Prosperous Ontario Community ) (Stouffville, ON: Stouffville Historical Committee, 1977); also Jean Barkey et al., "Stouffville," (Whitchurch Township ), 95-99; also Isabel Champion, ed., "Stouffville," (Markham: 1793-1900 ) (Markham, ON: Markham Historical Society, 1979), 289-296.〕
In 1877, Stouffville became an incorporated village.〔Cf. the detailed 1878 maps, (Township of Markham ); (Township of Whitchurch ), ''Illustrated historical atlas of the county of York and the township of West Gwillimbury & town of Bradford in the county of Simcoe, Ont.'' (Toronto : Miles & Co., 1878); also (Stouffville Map ) (1880).〕 On January 1, 1971, the Village of Stouffville amalgamated with Whitchurch Township and was designated a community within the larger town of Whitchurch–Stouffville; with amalgamation, the boundary of the town was also moved four farm lots south of the original boundary of Main Street (the land was formerly a part of Markham Township). The population of urban Stouffville in 1971 was 5,036.〔Barkey et al., (Whitchurch Township ), 99.〕
In 2003, a large 16th-century Huron village was discovered in Stouffville during land development; approximately 2000 people once inhabited the site (Mantle Site), which included a palisade and more than 80 longhouses, yielding tens of thousands of artifacts.〔Archeological Services, Inc., (Mantle Site ); Toronto Museum Project, (Dunsmere Pipe ); also Minutes, Town of Whitchurch-Stouffville Council, (Huron Ancestral Village Resolution (C10-C0 & R00) ), June 17, 2007.〕
