Information about the Tupper family and homestead in Sandwich Mass.

The Tupper Family Home

The Tupper Family Homestead was erected in 1637 by Thomas Tupper I and his wife Anne. The Town of Sandwich, the first established on Cape Cod, had just been settled the previous year.  A Tupper family member had lived in the house on Tupper Road continuously until the early 1900’s when it had been rented out for a period of time. The house underwent  renovations in 1920, but burned to the ground on April 9th, 1921. The Tupper Family Association still owns the property and placed a large boulder with memorial sign in 1939.

This photo is of the Benjamin Nye home in Sandwich, which is a nearly exact replica of the Thomas Tupper home. (Thomas and his 3rd wife had a daughter, Katherine, who married Benjamin Nye)
