Meaning & History

Altered or variant form of French Trahand, a metonymic occupational name for a silkworker who drew out the thread from the cocoons, from a derivative of traire ‘to draw or stretch’. It has been ‘translated’ into English as Strong.

FOREBEARS The LA branches of the Trahan family trace their descent from one Guillaume Trahan, from Bourgueil, France, in the Loire Valley, who arrived in Acadia in the late 17th century. At the time of the expulsion (1755), his numerous descendants were deported and settled principally in the Attakapas country of LA.
