Life History

Notes

• "I was looking for more info on my great grandfather Franklin M Tugman and found the site with your tree.  We could be family. It seems everything matches, but you do not have Paul Tugman listed as a son.  You have Franklin's wife and daughters but not Paul.  My grandmother Dorothy Alice Tugman VanMatre was the baby, Paul was older than her.  I would love to talk more with you about the family."
