I am the daughter of Douglas Haig Popham and have an item that belonged to H.L Poham 1901. The item was given to Douglas Popham in 1941. I am interested in learning about the name A.R. Falkner and anything else related to the Pophams

Herbert Popham's father was actually James Popham of Orepuki and a bit of a tyrant..
Because he was only 17 yrs old, he gave his uncle's name who lived next door as next of kin.

Herbert was child of Christina and James Popham Orepuki
