When did the Duggar family first arrive in the United States? Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the Duggar family history? The people known in ancient Scotland as the Picts were the ancestors of the first to use Duggar as a name. It was a name for a well-meaning person or "do-gooder."In medieval Scotland, names were more often spelled according to sound than any regular set of rules. An enormous number of spelling variations were the result. Over the years, the name Duggar has been spelled Duguid, Doogood, Doghet, Duget, Dugat, Dogood, Dugood, Doguid, Dugett, Dugatt, Duggood, Dugguid, Dogget, Doggatt, Doggett and many more. First found in Aberdeenshire, where they held a family seat from very ancient times. This web page shows only a small excerpt of our Duggar research.

More information is included under the topic Early Duggar Notables in all our PDF Extended History products. In such difficult times, Ireland, Australia, and North America looked like better homes for many Scots. The trips were expensive and grueling, but also rewarding, as the colonies were havens for those unwelcome in the old country. That legacy did not die easily, though, and many were forced to fight for their freedom in the American War of Independence. The Scottish legacy has resurface in more recent times, though, through Clan societies, highland games, and other organizations. Immigration and passenger lists have shown many early immigrants bearing the old Scottish name of Duggar: Alexander Duguid settled in Pennsylvania in 1750.
The motto was originally a war cry or slogan. Mottoes first began to be shown with arms in the 14th and 15th centuries, but were not in general use until the 17th century. Thus the oldest coats of arms generally do not include a motto. Mottoes seldom form part of the grant of arms: Under most heraldic authorities, a motto is an optional component of the coat of arms, and can be added to or changed at will; many families have chosen not to display a motto. Motto: Patientia et spe Motto Translation: With patience and hope.
The Duggar Family Crest was acquired from the Houseofnames.com archives. The Duggar Family Crest was drawn according to heraldic standards based on published blazons. We generally include the oldest published family crest once associated with each surname. This page was last modified on 28 July 2011 at 11:23. ©2000-2012 Swyrich Corporation.
