DURAND /
DURRAND : response
In specific answer to the query,
neither volume of A. Dictionary of Scottish Emigrants to Canada Before Confederation has any DURAND/
DURRAND references. Although probably representing a different family,
the name DURAND is well-known in the Hamilton area.
The Dictionary of Hamilton Biography refers to James
DURAND (1775-1833), Member of
the Legislature and Registrar of the Gore District, who was born in Wales. His daughter
Harriet DURRAND (1802-1856), wife of Peter Hunter
HAMILTON is buried in the Hamilton Cemetery.
As for the family mentioned in the query, Alexander
DURRANT, age 71, born Scotland,
a cooper, appears in the index to the 1871 census for the Town of Dundas, not far from
Hamilton. Alexander
DURRAND of Hamilton, cooper, served as bondsman in connection with
the 1834 marriage of Walter
BLACKHALL to Catherine
PELKENTON. Of possible interested is
a gravestone in the Hamilton Cemetery [no dates given] for one Alexander
DURRAND and wife
Adeline TALLMAN. Finally, the marriage of the couple in the query is contained in the marriage
register of Knox Presb Church at hamilton : Alexander
DURAND and Mary
MOFFAT, both of
Hamilton, married 7 Oct 1836, by banns, witnesses: : Frederic
SUTER and Thomas
ROLPH, both of Ancaster.
