Clan History
Hog History
Also spelled Hogg and Hogge, it is generally agreed that this surname derives from the name of the animal although the word ‘hoga’ means ‘careful’ or ‘prudent’.
Philip le Hog appears in the English ‘Hundred Rolls’ in 1274, and Alan le Hogge in a Lancashire Inquisition in 1323.
