(FOGO KIRK) It seems as if in the late 1600s the kirk was altered in quite a few ways. The galleries or “lairds lofts” were probably built on with their unusual outside stairs. The two “lairds lofts” have coats of arms to commemorate the families involved. The east gallery was for the Hog family from Harcarse and the west gallery for the Trotters of Charterhall. The Trotter gallery has a coat of arms dated 1671, whilst the Hog gallery has one dated 1677. (Distance between Cockburnspath and Fogo is 19.6 miles) [8]

THE HOGS OF NEWLISTON AND KELLIE. (1981). By Donald Whyte. Privately printed, this little booklet gives a history of this family of landed proprietors. The first was Roger Hog (1715-1789), 3rd son of John Hog of Cammo and Mary Cochrane, a banker in London and Edinburgh, who purchased the fine estate of Newliston in 1753 and in 1785 the estate of Kellie, near Pittenweem, but not the castle and the home farm. Also in 1785 he purchased the lands of Wester Luscar, Clune, and Drumbethie, near Dunfermline, but not the mineral rights, which were later acquired in 1790 by the Earl of Elgin. The next proprietor was Thomas Hog (1741-1827), advocate, and he in turn was succeeded by his sons, Roger Hog (1775-1833) and James Maitland Hog (1799-1858), advocates, and then by the latter`s son, Thomas Alexander Hog (1835-1908); then came his son, Steuart Bayley Hog (1864-1944), advocate, then the latter`s son, Roger Thomas Alexander Hog (1893-1979). Having no heir, the latter sold the farms of Kellie Estate, made over Newliston to his nephew, James Steuart Findlay, and with his wife moved in 1972 to Logie West, near Dunfermline, where he died on 9 August 1979 (Note: the lands to the west of Dunfermline purchased by the first Roger Hog in 1785 were inherited by his grand-daughter, Mary Turner Hog (1771-1854), who married in 1800 Sir John Buchan-Hepburn of Smeaton-Hepburn, Bart)

• Steuart Bayley Hog (1864-1944) married Jemima Christian Dundas, daughter of Ralph Dundas, granddaughter of Jemima Christian Macdowall, great-granddaughter of Day Hort Macdowall, great-great-granddaughter of William Macdowall, 18th of Garthland, 2nd of Castlesemple

[Partial Extract]

LINEAGE

The surname of Hog, one of local origin, is of great antiquity in Scotland : coeval with the retirement of Cospatrick, Earl of Northumberland, into North Britain, about the time of the Norman Conquest, it became hereditary in the reign of MALCOLM CANMORE, and was first assumed by the proprietors of the lands of Hogstown, in the shire of Angus, for we find in the bond of submission given in 1296 by the barons of Scotland to Edward I. of England, as recorded in Prynne’s history, that ALEXANDER HOG, ancestor of the family of whom we are treating is styled “ALEXANDER de HOGSTOWN.” This ALEXANDER HOG was father of JAMES HOG, who married JEAN HENDERSON, and had a son, ROGER HOG, a burgess of Edinburgh in 1330, who acquired different charters in the reign of David II. of the lands of Dalry and Eistfentown, in the constabulary of Haddington ; he gave a donation of the lands of Pitravie, in Fifeshire, to St. Nicholas’ altar ; and a charter in the same reign appears in Robertson’s Collections: “ROGERO HOG, burgensi de Edinburgh, tenementi et omnium terrarium et annuorum reddituum ejus in dicto burgo, 23rd Augt. a. r. 34”. His son, JOHN HOG, who is mentioned in the second roll of the General Register-house, as having obtained, in the 3rd of King Robert II., A.D. 1373, a charter, confirming a grant, of the deceased ISABEL, Countess of Fife (ie. ISABEL resigned her title of Countess in 1371, but died in 1389), to himself and his mother, MARGARET, out of the lands of Over and Nether Sydserff, in the barony of North Berwick, was father of ROGER HOG, whose son, ALEXANDER HOG, of Hogstown, gave a charter of alienation to SIR ALEXANDER HUME (ie. HOME), in the reign of James III. (1484.) He was founder of the house of Harcarse, in Berwickshire, from which sprung SIR ROGER HOG, senator of the College of Justice and also, the Rev. James Hogg, immediate ancestor of the Hoggs of the county of Roscommon.

LIEUT. COL. SIR JAMES McGAREL-HOGG, BART., K.C.B., M.P.

In the North of Ireland, and in the most prosperous portion of the Provice of Ulster, settled in days long gone by, the founders of the family of Hogg, of whom it is needless to mention the pedigree in detail, further that to say that Edward Hogg, of Lisburn, in the county of Antrim, left a son, William Hogg, of Lisburn, and afterwards of Belmont, in the same county, born in 1754, who married Mary Dickie, daughter of James Dickie, of Dunmore [ie. Dún Mór anglacised Dunmore, near Randalstown], county Antrim. Their eldest son, James Weir Hogg, born in 1790, studied law, and went out to India, where he became a member of the Bengal bar. He afterwards became a Registrar and Judge of the Supreme Court, Calcutta. In 1822, he married Mary Swinton, daughter of Samuel Swinton, Esq., of Swinton, Berwickshire, by whom he had seven sons and six daughters. . .

THE HOGG BARONETCY, OF UPPER GROSVENOR STREET, LONDON, WAS CREATED IN 1846 FOR JAMES WEIR HOGG

WILLIAM HOGG (ca 1658-1715), of Portglenone, County Antrim, moved to Ulster from Scotland or northern England during the late 17th century and settled near Lisburn, County Antrim.

He wedded firstly, Mary Podefield, in 1677; and secondly, Elizabeth Wilson, in 1686. His eldest son and namesake,

WILLIAM HOGG, married Abilgail Higginbothom in 1718. He died in 1726. The youngest son,

EDWARD HOGG (1722-1809), wedded Rose O'Neill, daughter of the Rev John O'Neill, in 1752. His eldest son,

WILLIAM HOGG (1754-1824), of Belmont, and his wife Mary Dickey, daughter of James Dickey, of County Antrim. His eldest son,

THE RT HON SIR JAMES WEIR HOGG, 1ST BARONET (1790-1876), was a lawyer and MP. He was born at Stoneyford, near Lisburn, the eldest son of William Hogg and his wife Mary, née Dickey.

educated at Dr Bruce's Academy, Belfast, and later at Trinity College Dublin. Hogg was barrister, Registrar Supreme Court and Vice-Admiralty Court, Calcutta; MP (C) for Beverley 1834–47; and for Honiton 1847; Director, HEIC Sept 1839 (twice chairman); member, Indian Council in 1815; and appointed a Privy Counsellor in 1872.

Sir James MacNaghten McGarel-Hogg, 2nd Baronet, KCB, (1823-90) was created 1st BARON MAGHERAMORNE in 1887.

The 1st Baron was born in Calcutta. His surname at birth was Hogg, but he added the surname McGarel in 1877 on inheriting the estates of Charles McGarel, his brother-in-law. Lord Magheramorne's seat was Magheramorne House in County Antrim.

JAMES DOUGLAS, 2nd Baron Magheramorne (1861-1903),

Born in London and was a captain in the Life Guards. He married Lady Evelyn Ashley-Cooper one year before succeeding to the titles. Seemingly the 2nd Baron lived a dissolute life, and was unsuccessful in business. He was declared bankrupt in 1900 in Dublin and died just over two years later in Paris.

The 2nd Baron was succeeded in the family honours by his brother,

DUDLEY STUART, 3rd Baron Magheramorne, (1863-1946), 2nd son of the 1st Baron. In later life he retired to Bournemouth and was living in a nursing home in Surrey at the time of his death.

The family honours devolved upon his brother,

RONALD TRACY, 4th Baron Magheramorne (1863-1957), who died in 1957 aged 93 and was unmarried, when the barony became extinct, though the baronetcy remains extant.

As of 2006, the presumed 9th Hogg Baronet has not successfully proven his succession, and is consequently not on the Official Roll of the Baronetage. However, the succession is under review by the Registrar of the Baronetage.

The merchant and philanthropist Quintin Hogg, 7th son of the 1st Hogg Baronet, was the father of Douglas Hogg, 1st Viscount Hailsham, twice Lord Chancellor of the United Kingdom.

HAIG FAMILY of BERMERSYDE, BERWICKSHIRE

• Russell, John. The Haigs of Bemersyde, a family history. (Edinburgh: William Blackwood and Sons, 1881), Page 62, 98.[16]

III. HENRICUS de HAGA, A.D. 1228-1240 - Of HENRY de HAGA, the eldest son of [ie. PETRUS de HAGA], little is known except that he is witness, as HENRICUS de la HAGE, to charter (c. 1230) of Ala Fitz-Roland, Constable of Scotland, in which the latter grants to the Monks of Melrose his waste land (vastum) of Lammermoor in exchange for certain lands given by them, called Keresban, with power to buld fences to protect cultivation. His wife’s name is mentioned as Adeliza de Riddell, daughter of Sir Anchitello de Riddell, by whom he had one son, Petrus de Haga, his successor. (p.62)

The oldest reference to the name of HOGE with which we have met is in 1425, when PATRICK HOGE and GILBERT HOGE, Squires, are named among the gentlemen who 'devydit the marches betwixt Ridbeth and Bemersyde, SIR ANDREW HAIG, the Laird of Bemersyde, presiding.

My Note: It would appear that the HOGE Squires mentioned above would have been men of high social standing, who owned, lived on, or lived near the Bemersyde, estates. The HOGE's were chief landowner's in the areas of DUNS, FOGO, COCKBURNSPATH, COLDSTREAM, NEWLISTON, KIRKLISTON. They would have been young nobleman acting as attendants' to a knight, SIR ANDREW HAIG, of Bermersyde, before becoming a knight themselves. You will find these HOGE's with variant spellings of HOG, HOGG, HOGGE, etc. I remain a bit sceptical of these HOGE's kinship relationship to the HAIG's of Bemersyde. However, these two HOGE's are dividing the border between Redpath, Earlston, Berwickshire and Bemersyde House, Berwickshire. A distance of 4.8 miles between the two.

• Internet Source

A FamilySearch Pedigree Resource File by Suzanne Guerra of Santa Rosa, California provides ancestry for William Hoge (1660-1749) going back through the Haigs to Petrus de Hage about 1,000.

Guerra's pedigree duplicates the names and relationships given in The Haigs of Bemersyde, though it appears from her Rootsweb genealogy (updated 2 Jan 2012) that The Hoge-Hogue Families by Joseph H. Sherrard was her source.

They are duplicates except where she shows a son Andrew Hoge Haig (father of Sir John Hoge and etc.) for Andrew Haig, 15º Laird of Bemersyde by Janet Nisbet.

The Andrew Haig that presided at the dividing of the marches between Patrick and Gilbert Hoge, and who is acknowledged as the first to spell the name "Haig", was the 5th great-grandfather of the Andrew that Guerra shows as the ancestor of the Hoges. According to The Haigs of Bemersyde, this Andrew was the 9º Laird of Bemersyde, not the 6º Baron, as Ross Kenzie has on his website. The record of this dividing of the marches is where the spelling "Hoge" is first documented. So far, only one child has been found listed for this Andrew Haig, John; and only two grandchildren, Gilbert and David, each (possibly) by a different mother.

If the legends are true, the Hoges are descended from the Haigs. It seems to me Guerra has connected them in as good a place as any.

Mr. William Hog b. 1578, d. Dec. 1616, was minister of Ayton 1601-1616, was father of Mr. William of Bogend, advocate 1641, whose eldest son, Sir Roger Hog, of Harcarse and Bogend, advocate, registered arms 1672 – argent, three boars’ heads erased azure armed or; represented Berwickshire in parliament, was Senator of the College of Justice 1677, was knighted, had his lands united and erected into a barony 1681, and died in 1700; his son, William Hog of Harcarse, was father of Andrew Hog of Harcarse, who died in 1772.

(FOGO KIRK) It seems as if in the late 1600s the kirk was altered in quite a few ways. The galleries or “lairds lofts” were probably built on with their unusual outside stairs. The two “lairds lofts” have coats of arms to commemorate the families involved. The east gallery was for the Hog family from Harcarse and the west gallery for the Trotters of Charterhall. The Trotter gallery has a coat of arms dated 1671, whilst the Hog gallery has one dated 1677. (Distance between Cockburnspath and Fogo is 19.6 miles) [19], [20]

William Hog of Vigourshaugh, co. Roxburgh, was a vassal of the Earl Marischal for lands in Upper Keith before 1480; he is probably identical with William Hog, son of Margaret Turnbull, Lady Hop Pringle, who has a suit in 1490; about the same time lived Christian Hog, wife of John Craig of that Ilk, and John Hog, Abbot of Culross 1490, who settled lands on Isobel Hog, and her husband, Alexander Hamilton of Grange, and was dead in 1494.

The Hogs of Vigourshaugh, latterly styled of Doucott, continued closely connected with the Marischal family, and Monan Hog acted as Marischal-Depute in 1568; John Hog, last of Vigourshaugh, was dead in 1647, when his sister, Elizabeth, had inherited that place, Doucott, and Braidyards.

A son of the family is said to have had a grant of Bleridryne, in the Mearns, from the Earl Marischal, in the reign of James V.; Monon Hog of Bleridryne married, before 1584, Katherine Carnegie, niece of Sir John Carnegie of Kinnaird; James Hog of Bleridryne registered arms 1693 – argent, three boars’ heads erased azure armed and langued or distilling drops of blood gules.

Of this family were the Hogs who possessed Raemoir for several generations, 1690-1800.

(Edinburgh: Adam & Charles Black, 1861). Page 102.

It is said that James V. travelled incognito, and from the kindness shown to him by a person named Hog, then farmer of Blairydryne, the Earl Marischal, who had a proprietary interest in Dores, gifted that farm to Hog, one of whose descendants married the heiress of Skene of Raemoir, in a neighbouring parish.

The Ha' Hoose (Hall House) - As evidenced by the armorial stone over the entrance, the house was constructed circa 1715 for the Hogg Family. The Hogg family may have succeeded to the estate of Raemoir when James Hogg (1661-1706) married Margaret Skene, the daughter of Robert Skene of Raemoir (Henderson, p.23). The Land Tax record of 1745 records that Robert Hogg was the proprietor of the estate with it being valued at £299. Raemoir is in Banchory, Aberdeenshire, Scotland

THE HOGGS OF BLAIRYDRINE.

The date when this family settled in the Parish of Durris is uncertain, but early in the fifteenth century they were on terms of intimacy and friendship with the Keiths of Inverugy and Cowie.

On 20th March, 1478-1479, the Lords Auditors of Causes and Complaints decreed that ANDREW HOGG should possess the lease and tack for life of the lands of Strabrok, granted to him by Sir William Keith, and by Sir Gilbert Keith, his son.

On 23rd June, 1562, “MONANE HOGG” is designed as “in Blerdryne,” and it is said that he received a grant of the property through the Earl Marischal, “for having courteously entertained (when but a farmer there,) King James V., travelling through that country in disguise.”

The family speedily took up a prominent position in the district, for in certain proceedings which took place before the Privy Council in 1609, they are thus described “MINIANE HOG of Bleridryne, MINIANE, and JOHNNE HOGIS his son, WILLIAM HOG, in Woodend, JAMES HOG in Knappach, WILLIAM HOG his son, ARCHIBALD HOG in Balbrydie, and ANDREW HOG in Boig.” These parties had been on unfriendly terms with Thomas Fraser in “Pitcowteis,” against whom, in February, 1606-7, it was complained that “on 12th August last, he and his accomplices armed with jacks, spears, swords, and gauntlets, and also with hagbuts and pistolets, came to HOG’s dwelling-house of Blarydryne at night and ‘dernit’ themselves all that night about his house, on purpose to slay him.”

MONAN HOG, JR., married JEAN LINDSAY, and it was probably a son [ie. JAMES HOGG] who married ANN DOUGLASS, daughter to JOHN DOUGLAS of Tilwhilly. Certain it is that the son of the latter couple, JAMES HOGG, who married “MARGARET SKENE, the only daughter of ROBERT SKENE OF RAEMORE,” and thus succeeded to that estate, sold the lands of Blairydrine. He was born in 1661, and died in 1706, as appears from the inscription on his tombstone in the churchyard of Banchory-Ternan, on which are cut the HOGG armorial bearings impaled with those of SKENE.

One of the descendants of the family was Rev. Dr. JAMES HOGG, of Skene, who died in November, 1823, aged seventy-two years. Another descendant was JAMES HOGG, schoolmaster of Banchory-Devenick, 1726 – 1771, whose son, GEORGE HOGG, was a merchant in Aberdeen and afterwards became proprietor of the estate of Shannaburn in Maryculter parish. He built a school in Banchory-Devenick which went by the name of Hogg’s School, and besides leaving a considerable sum for its support, he bequeathed One thousand pounds for educational purposes in Aberdeen.

Another descendant, who had been in very humble circumstances in early youth, tending cattle on the hill of Cairnshea, went to London and entered into the mercantile business there. He was thus enabled, in 1787, to leave to his native parish of Durris the sum of Five hundred pounds in the three per cent. Consols, the annual income from which he directed should be applied thus . . .

As of 2006, the presumed 9th Hogg Baronet has not successfully proven his succession, and is consequently not on the Official Roll of the Baronetage. However, the succession is under review by the Registrar of the Baronetage.

The merchant and philanthropist Quintin Hogg, 7th son of the 1st Hogg Baronet, was the father of Douglas Hogg, 1st Viscount Hailsham, twice Lord Chancellor of the United Kingdom.

HOG OF NEWLISTON.

[Partial Extract]

LINEAGE

The surname of Hog, one of local origin, is of great antiquity in Scotland : coeval with the retirement of Cospatrick, Earl of Northumberland, into North Britain, about the time of the Norman Conquest, it became hereditary in the reign of MALCOLM CANMORE, and was first assumed by the proprietors of the lands of Hogstown, in the shire of Angus, for we find in the bond of submission given in 1296 by the barons of Scotland to Edward I. of England, as recorded in Prynne’s history, that ALEXANDER HOG, ancestor of the family of whom we are treating is styled “ALEXANDER de HOGSTOWN.” This ALEXANDER HOG was father of JAMES HOG, who married JEAN HENDERSON, and had a son, ROGER HOG, a burgess of Edinburgh in 1330, who acquired different charters in the reign of David II. of the lands of Dalry and Eistfentown, in the constabulary of Haddington ; he gave a donation of the lands of Pitravie, in Fifeshire, to St. Nicholas’ altar ; and a charter in the same reign appears in Robertson’s Collections: “ROGERO HOG, burgensi de Edinburgh, tenementi et omnium terrarium et annuorum reddituum ejus in dicto burgo, 23rd Augt. a. r. 34”. His son, JOHN HOG, who is mentioned in the second roll of the General Register-house, as having obtained, in the 3rd of King Robert II., A.D. 1373, a charter, confirming a grant, of the deceased ISABEL, Countess of Fife (ie. ISABEL resigned her title of Countess in 1371, but died in 1389), to himself and his mother, MARGARET, out of the lands of Over and Nether Sydserff, in the barony of North Berwick, was father of ROGER HOG, whose son, ALEXANDER HOG, of Hogstown, gave a charter of alienation to SIR ALEXANDER HUME (ie. HOME), in the reign of James III. (1484.) He was founder of the house of Harcarse, in Berwickshire, from which sprung SIR ROGER HOG, senator of the College of Justice and also, the Rev. James Hogg, immediate ancestor of the Hoggs of the county of Roscommon.

HOGG, or de HOGA, from La Hogue, in the Cotentin. In 1040 Hubert de Hoga granted lands to Cerisy Abbey (Mon. ii. 960). Henry de Hoga and Adam de Hoga in 1250 occur in the Kelso Chartulary. Godfrey de la Hoge was benefactor to Gisborne Priory, York (Mon. ii. 150). Hence the Baronets Hogg, and the poet Hogg.
