JOSEPH DUGGAN is a native of this city, and a York Pioneer, having been born in 1832, and was a son of Thomas Duggan, a native of Ireland, who came to Canada in 1827, and died in Toronto in 1854. Mr. Joseph Duggan in 1851 commenced business at the corner of King and Princess Streets. In 1872 he bought a farm on Kingston Road, on which he erected an hotel. This he carried on for two years, afterwards renting it, and built the beautiful homestead where he now resides, known as Woodbine Park. He subsequently built the hotel on the race track, called the Woodbine Park Club-house, which he occupied for four years; he then retired to the homestead, which he has again rented, and is now living at 539 Church Street, Toronto. (vol. II, p. 43)
The baptisms of St. James Cathedral show Joseph Duggan, as a Storekeeper in 1859 and 1866 which matches the above description. The baptism of daughter Annie Noble Duggan in 1866 with her birth in 1865 matches the 1881 census for the family of Joseph and Susan Duggan which also shows them as belonging to the Anglican Church and showing Joseph now as a "Gentleman".
The 1871 census shows Joseph Duggan as a "Hotel Keeper" which follows the obove biography as well.
