John Paterson Hogg was born in Larbert in 1859 and died in Glasgow in 1933. He was variously described as a lawyer and solicitor. He married first Christina Morrison Bruce (1858-1890) and had three children. Apart from a death certificate for their daughter Isabella (b 1883, married and outlived Arthur Samuel Rice 1893/4-1942), I have all the relevant birth, marriage, and death certificates and census information about them.
Some time after the 1891 census, John married Dorothy Phillips. According to the 1911 census, Dorothy was aged 47, born in England, and had been married 17 years. Their son James was aged 11, born in England. I have not found a marriage record. Nor have I found a birth record for the son, James Augustus Paterson Hogg, or a listing in the 1901 census.
James Augustus Paterson Hogg died in Edinburgh in 1973, and his death certificate says that he was born on 26 January 1900. He married Mary Craig Wallace in 1963, and I have Mary's birth, marriage and death certificates. However he was also previously married to a Margaret, surname unknown, and all attempts so far to find a marriage record have been unsuccessful.
He too was a lawyer. He was a partner in a legal practice in Glasgow in 1926, and in a firm in Edinburgh between 1957 and 1965. He served a short service commission in the HLI and was promoted Lt on 1st Nov 1948 with seniority 24th Aug 1939 (I don't really understand this either!)
Can anyone suggest where I might find
- the marriage record of John Paterson Hogg and Dorothy Phillips
- the birth record of James Augustus Paterson Hogg
- the marriage record of James A P Hogg and Margaret
- the death record of Isabella Chalmers Bruce Hogg or Rice?
