John Douglass, younger, of Tilwhilly, the husband of Agnes Barclay, fell in battle four years after his marriage, leasing two daughters, one of whom married a Major Sinclair. The other, Ann, was the wife of James Hogg, of Bleridryne, in the parish of Durris. Their mother married David Strachan, minister of Fettercairn, who, " in consequence of his well-established loyalty," was made Bishop of Brechin in 1662. The date of their marriage is not mentioned. The Bishop died in 1671. His widow probably lived till 1662, when she " gifted L33 6s 8d. to the poor of Brechin."

- The family of Hog, of Bleridryne, afterwards of Ramore,is incidentally noticed in account of the Douglasses of Tilwhilly in this volume. Menon or Monan Hog got a wadset in 1596 from the Earl Marischal, of Bleridryne in the Parish of Durris in exchange for certain other lands. He was father of a second Monanus Hog, of Bleridryne, whose widow, Jean Lindsay(married in 1633), is mentioned in legal proceedings (I'JyP to 1685) between Sir Alexander and Sir Peter Fraser, of Durris,on the one hand, and her son James on the other. It was probably her son James Hog, of Bleridryne, who was married to Ann Douglass, daughter of John Douglass, of Tilwhilly,and his wife, Agnes Barclay. Their son, James Hog, afterwards of Ramore, sold Bleridryne. He was born in 1661 and died in 1706, as appears from the inscription on his tombstone in the churchyard of Banchory, on which the Hogs' armorial bearings are cut, impaled with those of Skene.
Grizel Hog, " sister to Ramoir," was married in 1715 to George Gordon of Cults in the Parish of Kinethmont, and Robert Hor of Ramore, was married in 171 1 to Jean Young,daughter of Robert Young, of Auldbar. The names of seven children of Robert Hog and Jean Young are given in the parish register, but we cannot say whether Grizel Hog or Gordon and Robert Hog were children of James Hog and Ann Douglass.
It may have been so.
