Notes
- ------------------
Thomas Tugman's Parents
I am a direct decendant from one Thomas E Tugman born about 1890. He married a Della (do not know maiden name). He had three children Evelynn Tugman, Thomas Tugman and my mother Mary Tugman.
My great grand father was a Tugman, all I know. Only hint I have is apparently he married a [Choctaw woman]. She was my grandfather's mother. He told a story that one day when he was very young a man came rideing in and tried to rape my great grandmother. She killed him. Great grandfather took the fall for the murder, because he felt that during this time they would have killed his wife, even if she did kill him defending herself from his advances.
I know that they are the Oklahoma line of Tugmans. My mother can remember going to Oklahoma to visit his family as a kid but she does not recall any names. She also can remember my grandfather telling stories of visiting his mothers side of the family on the Reservation. I asume the Oklahoma Chacktaw [Choctaw] reservation. But not certain.
Grandfather was a halfbreed that looked white and he did not really talk about the Indian side, because of the trouble he had seen it bring on people.
