Hello and welcome to the Tubby Family site.  It is called that because that is  the name that I research the most and that is my maiden name.  Please have a  look around, if you are related to anyone on this site and would like your  information added (or if there is a mistake and you would like it corrected)  please e-mail me at J_Hop@windstream.net and I will correct the mistake.

It is very difficult find relatives of Tubby`s because 
 1. They were Choctaw Indians (records were kept different for Indians) 2. There were many different ways the name was spelled; Tubbee, Tubby, Tubbe,  Tubbey, etc.
 3. Tubby is only part of the name, at one time it would have been; Wakatubbee,  Kanatubbe, Hotalubbee
 4. There are also Tubbys that came here from England but from what I can tell  they are no relation. 
 5. The name tubby also is some of the other tribes.

I have seen different Choctaw meanings for the name Tubby.  Actually it is the  ubi that has the meaning.  I have seen where some say it means to kill,  meaning that the person having the name had killed; deer killer, six killer,  etc. I 
 have also seen where it means Warrior.

PLEASE sign the guest book so that we know what relatives (or anyone else)  that has visited the site.  Also this way we can stay in touch.

Thank you,

Treva Tubby Hopson
