  • Notes 


    • Marriage record in Letcher County record book 1 page 7, date December 28,1842 by Hiram Hogg J.P., James to Lodica Frazier M. Lodica Frazier b.April 22, 1826 d. March 26, 1873. She died two years after they moved toRowan County. In 1871 they sold their farm on Kings Creek, LetcherCounty, Kentucky and their plans were to settle in Texas, but for someunknown reason they located at Cranston, (New Hope), Rowan County,Kentucky. They bought a farm six miles out of Morehead, Kentucky on thenorth fork of Triplett Creek and are buried there. In 1936 I visited thegrave site. While at Morehead College I became acquainted with theiroffsprings. I was interested in the family because my great grandmother,Peggy Hogg, was their daughter. (No. 109 in the book) I lived with TildonHogg's family while attending college, and became personally acquaintedwith the generation. It is said they were the first Hogge family to addthe letter "e" to the name Hogge. James was a man of noble character anda gentleman. In his clan were lawyers, college professors, schoolsuperintendents, judges, teachers, and hundreds of good culturedcitizens. They contributed greatly to the development of Rowan County,Kentucky. Three of his daughters married and Margaret "Peggy" Hogge hisoldest child and her son, James Ison is my grandfather. Peggy and Elijahare both buried in our family cemetary at Isom, Letcher County. She diedin 1875 and he died in 1877.
