Surnames: Tupman Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/HSDBAIB/1303 Message Board Post: Hamer Tupman was known to me as my father's uncle. We visited him in the Bend District near Red Bluff, Ca. in the early '50s. Dad said Hamer, was his uncle, brother to his father John Grant. I believe both brother's were born in Kentucky in the Covington area. Hope this will help in some way. P
