Hogg, Thomas

Submitted by edpope on

6.6.1795 Hogg at Lauderdale's (with Sir J Henderson, adv Moore)

Probably Thomas Hogg of Newliston, Lauriston who married Lauderdale's sister Mary-Julian on 9.3.1773. His father had been a merchant in London, and he was probably the Thomas Hogg who entered the Faculty of Advocates in Edinburgh in 1765 and voted in the minority with Sir John Henderson for Henry Erskine, the incumbent Dean, against the Lord Advocate Robert Dundas (nephew of Erskine's lifelong rival Henry Dundas) who became the next Dean of the Faculty of Advocates 20.1.1796

A Thomas Hogg who entered New College Hackney in Sept 1789 may have been his son
