Useramen

Useramen was the son of the vizier Amethu called Ahmose, who served during the reign of Thutmose II and the early years of the combined reigns of Hatshepsut and Thutmose III. His mother's name was Ta-amenthu. Useramen was married to a lady named Tuiu, and the couple is known from their tombs to have had at least four daughters and a son. Useramen came from a very influential family. His father was vizier before him and later his brother Neferweben became vizier as well. Useramen was also the uncle of Rekhmire, who was vizier under Thutmose III. ==Vizierate==
