There are, however, persons bearing the name in Lancashire; and, between Little Baddow and Malden, co. Essex, there is a village called Tuftes. Peter Tufts was one of the earliest and largest land-owners in our town of Malden; and it is perhaps a fair supposition, that he named his home for his English birthplace.
