I am trying to help out a friend's child who is doing a genealogy report for school. He needs to know the origin and meaning of the name "Huffman." I hope someone can help me. About 90% of my ancestors came from the Pfalz area. But I do not have any books that give name origins or meanings. I know that there is at least one book which gives this information, but I do not own it and it is not in our library. Thanks for your help. Lois in Lexington, KY
