SS Dufferin was a coastal steamship built by Joseph McGill of Shelburne, Nova Scotia on April 14, 1905. Originally owned by New Burrell Johnson Iron Co Ltd., Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, she was sold to sea merchants William A. Murdock and William J. Murdock of Sherbrooke, Nova Scotia on the same day. Under the Murdoch’s command the Dufferin served as a passenger and cargo ship between Halifax and Sherbrooke. The Dufferin steamed along coastal communities until the Hochelaga Shipping and Towing Co. Ltd. dismantled her up in 1938. Transport Canada closed the Dufferin's registry on December 31, 1937.
