The roots of the Duff family tree extend across much of Western Pennsylvania, including to Murrysville, where the surname should ring a bell as the namesake of the municipality’s first park.
Duff Park was acquired by the municipality in 1968, and was originally formed from three parcels totaling about 143 acres, 88 acres of which belonged to the Duff family.
