On 12 June 1798, John Hupp and Sarah his wife, sell to Martin Hupp "brother of said John Hupp", 230 acres on the west side of the North Fork of the Shenandoah River, part of 490 acres granted to the said John Hupp as heir of Casper Hupp, deceased, 11 Aug. 1789, corner to Dr. John Henry Neff and Jacob Holman. (Shenandoah County Deed Book, L, pg. 253). The Neff and Holman land was near the mouth of Holman's Creek and so this places this land near the present day Shenandoah Caverns.

There was also a Balser Hupp in southern Shenandoah County who was chain carrier on the 1775 survey for Casper "Hope" and he purchased land in the same neighborhood as Casper in 1776.
