Lockhart Duff, (1792, Scotland - 11 February 1858, Hamilton, Ontario) was a Landowner. Duff came to Canada in 1830 when he left Scotland in financial straits. Duff appears to be a man of independent means after his arrival to Hamilton. He owned in Dundas which ran from Main Street to the base of the Niagara Escarpment. Lockhart Duff carried a name that originated with the marriage in 1666 of Jane Lockhart of the prominent Baronial family to William Duff, Provost of Inverness.
