Where did the German Duggar family come from? What is the German coat of arms/family crest? When did the Duggar family first arrive in the United States? Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the history of the family name?

The Duggar surname comes from the German term for a duck or diving bird (from du(c)ken ‘to dive or duck’). It is thought to have been a nickname for someone thought to resemble the duck, but in in some instances may have been an occupational name for someone whose trade involved the handling of ducks.

Spelling variations of this family name include: Ducker, Dücker, Ducher, Duckermann, Duckenhoff and others.

First found in Westphalia, where the name emerged in mediaeval times as one of the notable families in the western region. From the 13th century onwards the surname was identified with the great social and economic evolution which made this territory a landmark contributor to the development of the nation.

Some of the first settlers of this family name or some of its variants were: Georg Ducker, who arrived in Georgia between the years 1733-1783; Joh Baltzer Ducker, who arrived in Philadelphia in 1753; Carl S. Ducker, who arrived at the port of Baltimore in 1832.
