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, 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, daughter of Samuel Swinton, Esq., of Swinton, Berwickshire, by whom he had seven sons and six daughters. . .

[Partial Extract]
“On my mother’s side of the house ‘wrote Lady Aberdeen,’ came thrilling stories of the ancient chief of the O’Neills whose blood ran in our veins through the romantic marriage of Edward Hogg with Rose O’Neill, daughter of the Rector of Largie.”
Briefly, the story runs that Edward Hogg, a linen manufacturer, met Rose when he rescued her from a run-away pony. The two fell in love, but when Edward asked the Rector for Rose’s hand, he met with an indignant refusal. “What impertinence!” sputtered Father. “A mere linen merchant asking for his exalted daughter’s hand!”
The Eloped
So, the two eloped and were well and truly married by a sympathetic country clergyman.
Rose was cut off with a shilling and Edward was dismissed from the Society of Friends for marrying a non-Quaker.
Subsequently, however, all was forgiven. Rose was accepted by her family and Edward was reinstated in the Society of Friends. Edward pre-deceased his wife and she lived with her son, dying at the age of 103.
Married In Calcutta
In Calcutta, this brilliant son [ie. grandson James Weir Hogg] of the Edward and Rose, met and wooed a lovely girl – Mary Swinton – who came of a Border family. James pressed his suit with vigor and married Mary Swinton in Calcutta in 1822 and the couple became the grandparents of Ishbel Marjoribanks.
