- God Guard (you).
Earliest record of family name in area is

have trees to connect I'd be pleased to hear from you.

Distribution of the family
name in 1881 (above)
The predominance of the name in the
West Midlands is clear.

from the immediate cross-Channel area (above).

In a will of a WHITEHOUSE
relative family member Isaac
DUGARD was a joint executor,
and given of Whittall St - Gunmaker. (In the Administrations of
the estate of another WHITEHOUSE relative in 1844, Isaac is
described as a Roller of Metals).
Marriage

"Know all
men by these presents that Robert DUGARD, butcher, of the Parish
of Feckenham, Worcs and George HOLDEN of the Parish of Hagley,
Worcs, are firmly bound etc. first of June, 1779, so that Robert
DUGARD bachelor, and Susannah PARR spinster of Hagley may

Family Note:
William
Frederick DUGARD,
grandson of Joseph
Valentine DUGARD
had 3 bound handwritten journals of DUGARD Family History which
were sold prior to WW2. Are these still in existence? Please
contact me if you know of these works.
Attendance
Register of St John C of E School, Deritend, Birmingham:
1850, no. 52: a
William
Henry DUGARD
recorded having attended school Sep. 30, Oct 7, 14, 2, 28 paying
2d. on each occasion later appeared as no. 60 in 1851, attending
Jan 20, 27, Feb 3, 10, Mar 24 paying 2d. on each occasion.
The
Birmingham Gun Quarter:
The Birmingham
Gun Quarter was centred in the part of the city lying between the
foot of Steelhouse Lane and Aston. There were a mixture of
factories of moderate & small size as well as "shoppings",
the name given to workshops which were let out to individual
out-workers. It was close, cramped, higgledy-piggledy, with early
Victorian tenement buildings pushing in between buildings of an
earlier time and function.
The largest
factory was that of Webley and Scott in Slaney St., but
smaller firms such as Bonehills and Benjamin West
in Price St., and numerous others in Price Street. Mingled with
these factories were workshops. A gunsmith who wished to set up
business of his own would rent a space in one of these from
either the Council or the company of other gunsmiths who might be
doing quite different work.
DUGARDs listed as
Gunmakers at Whittall St 1849-1871.
Robert
DUGARD (n.
1784): Gun & Pistol Maker 1822-39, before being bought out by
William TRANTER, at 13 Moland Street 1822, 11 King Street
1822-26, 29 Whittall Street 1827-39. In 1841 an advertisement
read "William TRANTER (successor to R. DUGARD), Gun and
Pistol maker, for home and exportation, No. 29.5 Whittall Street,
Birmingham. Percussion caps, waddings, implements, barrels,
locks, and furniture of every description."
Isaac
& Martha DUGARD
in 1851 were employing two hands and Emma PEARCE (15) House
Servant

1763
Thomas DUGARD
certificated by the parish of Salwarpe to Elmley Lovett
There are passing
references to the name DUGARD
in other settlement examinations. These give little information
that cannot be obtained from parish registers, apart from
occupations, e.g.:
Soley
Wells, examined 2.1.1752 in Chaddesley Corbett, said he had
worked (about 1726-32) as a journeyman servant at the fulling
trade by the week for a Mr.
DUGARD of
Bromsgrove, for 6 years or thereabouts
Humphrey
MASKALLl, examined 19.5.1773 at Bromsgrove, said he had been
hired c1748 to William
DUGARD,
yeoman of Grafton Manor (near Bromsgrove) for a year at wages of
£5.5.0
William
PEPLOE, examined 13.1.1772 at St Andrews, Droitwich said that
when he was 13, he was hired by Thomas
DUGARD of
Salwarpe & served him for two years.
The name DOGOOD
may be a
variant of DUGARD.
There was a family called DOGOOD in Lye, (maybe Leigh) in
Worcestershire.
DUGARDs/DUGGARDs
in London:
In 1846 some are
recorded outside the city walls of London. Charles & Edward
DUGARD, Saddlers & Harness makers, at 10 Finsbury Pavement.
Walsall, Staffordshire was a traditional harness-making centre
and perhaps this pair had Midlands origins.
