Walter Tuckerman
Walter Rupert Tuckerman (1881-1961) was an American lawyer, banker, golfer, and philanthropist. Tuckerman founded the Bank of Bethesda in Bethesda, Maryland and served as its first president. He also led development of the Edgemoor neighborhood of Bethesda. Tuckerman was a direct descendent of Oliver Wolcott, a signer of the United States Declaration of Independence. He was also a cousin of horse rider Bayard Tuckerman, Jr., an inductee into the National Racing Hall of Fame.
==Early life and education==

Tuckerman was born to Walter Cary and Florence Harding Tuckerman in Oyster Bay, New York on Long Island on December 23, 1881. After becoming orphaned, he moved to Washington, D.C. to live with Lucius Tuckerman, a wealthy grandfather. In 1899, Tuckerman graduated from Morristown School (now Morristown-Beard School) in Morristown, New Jersey. He later served as a member of the school's Board of Trustees and as president of its alumni association. The award for scholarship in Greek at Morristown School (the Walter R. Tuckerman Greek Prize) bore his name.
In 1903, Tuckerman received his bachelor's degree from Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts. He then completed his law degree at George Washington University in Washington, D.C. in 1907. Tuckerman later served on the school's Board of Trustees.〔 In 1952, George Washington University awarded him an honorary doctorate of laws.
Seeking a career, Tuckerman traveled to the Western United States to work as a prospector, rancher, and sheep herder in California and Nevada. While out west, he also joined the Alaskan Boundary Survey Commission in 1909.〔 Recognizing his work with the commission, a peak along the Canada/Alaska boundary bears the name Mount Tuck.〔 Returning to the Eastern U.S., Tuckerman began his law practice. He also took on the role of president of the Union Savings Bank, and then served as a member of the Board of Directors of the National Metropolitan Bank.〔
