Jefferson worked as a carpenter in Laconia, New Hampshire. Mary was his second wife. His first wife, Ella, was from Vermont and died after 1880 in Pembroke, New Hampshire. He and Mary had no children.

 Jefferson served in the Civil War as a Private in Co. C, 1st Vermont Heavy Artillery Regiment. He enlisted at Chester, Vermont, on 21 November 1863, and was mustered out on 25 August 1865.

 The 1st Heavy Artillery Regiment was Vermont's largest of the war, with 2,320 men. It was originally organized as an Infantry Regiment in the summer of 1862, but was changed to Heavy Artillery by order of the War Department in 1863.
 During 1863, the unit was employed in constructing and manning forts around Washington, DC. Its camps were well-built wooden structures, with a fine hospital. Each day, visitors from the city would arrive at the fort. It has been written that "no more pleasant or cheerful experiences were ever the lot of soldiers in actual war than those enjoyed by this regiment during the whole of the year 1863 and the first three months of 1864."
 The unit saw its first combat when they took part in the campaign against Spotsylvania, Virginia, 15 - 18 May 1864. After that, they fought at Cold Harbor and Petersburg, Virginia, Fort Stevens, Maryland, Charlestown, West Virginia, and several other engagements until their final battle back at Petersburg in March and April, 1865.
