The FARRAND Family of Essex & Morris Co., N.J.
"Material Concerning the Farrand Family" by Alexander Ross Piper - LDS film #00030307, item 11
FARRAND - The original name of the family was Dusson (d'Usson or D'Husson). Members of the family were Counts of Mont de Ferrand and Clermont-Ferrand in southern France. Daniel, a Huguenot, fled to ENG in 1550 and adopted the name "Farrand." His descendant, Nathaniel Farrand, emigrated from London in 1645 and settled at Milford, Conneticut. His grandson, Samuel Farrand (1680-1750) moved to Newark, NJ in 1711. He married Hannah Wheeler, daughter of Joseph and Dorcas Wheeler. They had ten children. Descendants listed lived in NJ and elsewhere.
