Miscellaneous HOG* Records

(This page was last modified on 11 April 2005)

Below are various bits of information which I have come across which do not fit into any my current filing system.  "What filing system?" I hear the cry.  

 


Whalers

From the book "The Waling Trade of North East England" by Tony Barrow page 61 - "Berwick on Tweed Whalers 1807 to 1825, Owners John Miller DICKSON and James HOGARTH.  The book was in that book shop in Church Street, Whitby.  


Hawkshead, Cumbria - Apprentice

From doing a search for "HOGGARTH" on A2A; there are lots more snippets to be found there.  

Reference: WPR 83/7/14/1
Creation dates: 1 June 1720

Mary Hoggarth, daughter of Joseph Hoggarth of Hawkshead, labourer to Edward Sealer of Hawkshead Fields, cordwainer, until age of 21 years


BURNETT Link

From Bill BURNETT March 2005  " I have a HOGGART[H] connection on my BURNETT line.  Robert BURNETT married Jane HOGGART[H] on 3 Dec 1842 at Whitby parish church.  Jane's parents were Peter [another one!] HOGGART[H] and Ann HARRISON who married at Danby in 1805."  
I don't have these on any HOG* branch at the moment.  


Whitehaven, Cumbria

This is extracted from Steve BULMAN's page on Whitehaven which can be found at  http://www.stevebulman.f9.co.uk/cumbria/whitehaven.html#1

Ginns is a populous suburb, containing between 8 and 900 souls, three potteries, a copperas, and a paint and colour manufactory, &c., which employ collectively a considerable number of hands, there being 140 persons constantly employed at Mr. Wilkinson's pottery alone. Here are three rows of houses known by the name of "New Houses," comprising about 270 dwellings, erected by Sir James Lowther, and now occupied rent free, by colliers. The first house at Ginns was built in 1704; the chapel and first houses at Mount Pleasant were erected by Mr. Hogarth, about the year 1787. Corkickle place, Floraville, Hamilton terrace, Waterloo terrace, &c. form a pleasant suburb, consisting of several neat mansions, chiefly occupied by gentry and tradespeople.  

The Chapel at Mount Pleasant, which was built in 1789, by Mr. Hogarth, as an episcopal place of worship, has long been occupied by the Primitive Methodists.


Reports of Deaths 

Jeff KNAGGS is gradually expanding his list of newspaper reports of deaths - worth a look:

Lost trawlermen of the port of Hull  

HOGARTH, John.(48),3 Ivy-grove, Rugby st, Hull. [Bosun]

Glaisdale Cow Club  

At the Lit and Phil in Whitby, in the same box as the diary transcripts of the diary of Rev Daniel Duck, was a book marked as "Registry of Cows in Glaisdale Cow Club" which covered the period 1887 to 1891.  There were not a lot of entries so perhaps only special cows were included.  The cows were described so maybe the point was to identify who owned what cow - rather like branding them.  There were  a few owned by William HOGARTH.  


Malton Residents  

From "Malton in the Nineteenth Century" a survey of the properties owned by Earl Fitzwilliam in 1845 or 49 - 
plot 382, Henry HOGGARD, house and shop in Low Street - which us now known as Castlegate.  


1928 Beauty Competition  

From the July 2004 Journal of the CFHS, page 57 - in November and December 1928 the "Gazette" (no mention of which but it was daily and from the area from which the children came probably Middlesbrough) had pictures of six children each day and readers voted for their top six for the week.  One entry was Sarah HOGARTH age 3 of Frosterly.  


1840 Trade Directory Eskdaleside  

James HOGARTH, Shoemaker.  
(courtesy of Caroline GADEN)
(he also shows on the 1841 census age 40, though there he is HOGGARTH)  
In the Baine's Directory for 1923 he is shown as being at Sleights - probably the same dwelling.  


Fascist Round-Up  

The Times Friday Jun 07 1940 page 4:
It was stated by the police yesterday that four Suffolk officials of the British Union of Fascists have been taken into custody under the Defence Regulations.  They are Ronald Noah CREASY and George Frederick HOGGARTH, both of Eye, near Ipswich and Lawrence W. HARDING and Raymond SMITH : both of Bury St Edmunds.  
(I've been advised by Helen BROWN that George Frederick HOGGARTH is the son of George HOGGARTH who was the 4th son of Robert HOGGARTH and Hannah KIDD.  George Frederick HOGGARTH was born in Hong Kong in 1910 where his father was serving in the Royal Hong Kong police.  They returned to England in 1914 and George became a farmer in Eye.  This is the Kirkleatham branch)  


William's 100th  

The Times Saturday Dec 24th 1938 page 7
Mr William HOGGARTH, of Glaisdale, North Yorkshire, who was for many years a keen follower of the Glaisdale Harriers and a well known sportsman, has just celebrated his hundredth birthday.  
(This is the Egton/Glaisdale branch)  


Hungry HOGGARTH's  

The Times Tuesday Oct 21 1924 page 14
Messrs. Lithgow of Port Glasgow, have received an order for a steamer of 5,500 tons deadweight for Messrs. H. HOGGARTH and Sons, Glasgow.  


A criminal at last.  

From Janet HEBDEN April 2004: "When Thos & Mary HEBDEN's son Matthias was 18 he was given 14 days for stealing from Ditchburn bakers in Whitby. His fellow thief 29 year old James Irwin was given a month. Mary HEBDEN (nee HOGGARTH) was also given a month for receiving. Source Whitby Gazette."  

From the age of Matthias this would have been in 1888.  Mary HOGGARTH was baptised 30 March 1838, the daughter of Matthew HOGGARTH and Susannah PEACOCK.  This is the Egton Branch of the family.

Bits from Grosmont

From "The Grosmont Millennium, Reflections and Recollections" :

"At the turn of the century Grosmont Farm was farmed by Mr George HOGGARTH and his family (I can be corrected on this) but in 1925 they moved to Priory Farm" 

"In the early part of the century Mr. & Mrs. George HOGGARTH farmed the 140 acres of Priory Farm and their son Martin took over following his parent's retirement.  There were also two sisters in the family, Margaret who lives and farms at Brock Rigg, Glaisdale, and Agnes who chose to follow a Nursing profession but has since retired.  Mr. and Mrs. Martin HOGGARTH moved on to Ampleforth to continue his farming, that was when Mr. & Mrs. G Nicholson then began their farming career at Priory Farm  with a herd of 50-60 dairy cows, and after a number of years they moved to Brisco Farm on the Mulgrave estate.  "

In the Hogarth Family HQ Guestbook Oct 2004 Glynne Johnson (nee Hogarth) wrote:
"I know my Grandads family farmed at Grosmont Farm, Grosmont for at least two generations.
My Granfather was Philip Andrew Hogarth (wife Mary nee Alderson)
His father was Thomas Hogarth born around 1857 and his wife was Mary.
His father (my Gt Gt Grandad was George Hogarth born around 1815 and his wife was Ann. " 

I had a quick look over at my notes of the Index for the 1891 census for this area and folio 21 has these HOGGARTHs with age and place of birth.  Note that it does not give relationships and these might be actually from different households:
George    76    Egton Bridge
Mary        28    Darlington
Mary J     8    Shildon
Annie        5    Grosmont
George     4    Grosmont
Ellen         2    Grosmont.  

If you look over in Rod's reference section you'll see that the above are related and that the Thomas age 34 who I have as being on folio 31 seems to be actually on folio 21 and is son of George.  Just shows how many mistakes there are around and how one should "check the source".  


Poachers near Kendal

The Times, Thursday December 23 1847 page 3
Affray with Poachers - On Wednesday night last, about 11 o'clock, as Henry Croft, gamekeeper to Alderman Thompson, in company with two assistants, named Henry and William Hoggarth, brothers, were passing through some preserves at Bendrigg, they saw three poachers with a dog at a short distance. On perceiving the keepers the poachers made off, followed closely by the keepers, and on finding that Croft and his assistants were gaining ground upon them one of the poachers turned round and called out to the others, with an oath, "shoot the devils," meaning the keepers, upon which two of the poachers took guns and commenced putting the barrels into the stocks. Croft rushed in, and attempted to seize one of the men, upon which he dropped the gun-stock, took the barrel by the muzzle in both hands, and inflicted a severe wound on Croft's forehead, which felled him to the earth. Henry Hoggarth came up at the time and seized another poacher, but received a violent blow on the left arm from a gun-barrel from the third poacher, which broke his arm and of course rendered him unable to defend himself; but having hold of his man with the right hand they fell together, and Hoggarth continued to hold him down, although the poacher was lying upon him with the barrel of the gun, until his brother, who had succeeded in capturing the third man (who had surrendered and promised to go quietly) came up. However, on the brother coming up where Croft and Henry Hoggarth were struggling on the ground with the other two, the man who had engaged with Henry Hoggarth got loose from him and struck William a severe blow on the head with the gun-barrel, which knocked him down. The three poachers then made off, after beating the keepers until two of them were almost unable to leave the ground. Croft, however, got the assistance of another man, and proceeded to Kendal, where he arrived about half-past 1 o'clock in the morning, and gave information to Mr. Lipsett, who went to most of the houses occupied and frequented by poachers, and in the house of Joseph Langhorn, in Kirkland, found a dog which the keepers identified as the one which they had seen with the party who had assaulted them. One lap of Langhorn's jacket was literally covered with blood. Two other men, named Jekinson and Holme, were afterwards taken into custody and brought before Mr. T. Atkinson on Friday, and remanded for further examination till Saturday. The poachers left two gun-stocks, one barrel, and three hare-nets on the scene of action.

Kirkland is now subsumed into Kendal.  No sign of Bendrigg.

Steamers sunk by the Mowe

Times article of  Wednesday Feb 2nd 1916 primarily about the arrival of the Appam in Norfolk Virginia in the hands of a German prize crew after her capture by the German Cruiser Mowe which was disguised as a tramp steamer.  Among other steamers which had been sunk by the Mowe was the Corbridge, 3,687 tons, built in 1910, and managed by J. Hoggarth and Co., of Cardiff.  (See the Egton/RHB Branch)  


Kendal Marriages

In the Times Saturday August 16th 1913 page 9:-
Forthcoming Marriages -  Mr. P. CUBITT and Miss HOGGARTH - The marriage of Mr. Percy Cubitt, youngest son of the late Mr. and Mrs. H. C. Cubitt, of Brockley, and Miss Christian H. Hoggarth, eldest Daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Hoggarth, St. Abbs, Kendal, will take place quietly at Crosthwaite Church, near Kendal, on Tuesday, September 2.  It was later reported that the marriage took place on the due date. 

In the Times Saturday July 24th 1920 page 15:-
Forthcoming Marriages - CAPTAIN L. S. HOGGARTH and Miss ROBINSON - The marriage arranged between Captain Lawrence Steele Hoggarth, elder son of Mr. and Mrs. A.

Robinson, of 8, Vicarage-terrace, Kendal, will take place at Kendal parish church on Wednesday August 18, at 2 p.m.  No invitations are being issued, but all friends will be very welcome at the church and afterwards at the parish hall adjoining.  
A later article confirmed the wedding took place as planned.  The bride was attended by Miss E. Kathleen Robinson and Miss Olive Mary Hoggarth.  Mr. A. H. G. Hoggarth, brother of the bridegroom, was best man.  
(I think there was an item some years earlier where it mentioned L S Hoggarth being made a captain in the Border regiment c. June 1916)

1842 Bastards in the Whitby Union

From the Poor Law Records via Steven Whitaker and "thewhitbygroup":  

List of Bastard Children Chargeable to the Whitby Union, dated 15th January 1842, Glaisdale: 
HOGGART Stephen 1/6  per week
(as Steven points out these were just the children chargeable on the Union.   There would be other bastards being supported by their fathers.)

Swindon HOGARTHs 

I came across this in the July 2003 Journal of the Wiltshire FHS Journal and remembered that someone had an interest in Swindon HOGARTHs.

Swindon Waterworks Co. founded 23 July 1857 with a shareholding of £10,000 in £1 shares. There were 185 shareholders in 1895 when an Act of Parliament enabled the Borough of Swindon to acquire the company.

In the list of shareholders is:

HOGARTH, Thomas O.      Engineer        131 shares

I don't know what the shares were worth at that time but even at £131 that would be, I think, about 2 or 3 years wages for a labourer.  

The 1861 census RG9-1272 folio 79, no. 7 Faringdon Street, New Swindon has this family, the only HOG*s in Swindon.

LAWSON connection 

The following is an extract from the pages of  John LAWSON which can be found on http://www.rootsweb.com/~daisy/lawbar.htm 

PHILIP LAWSON of Egton Bridge in the County of York, Gentleman, born 1728, called after
his Uncle Philip, 6th son of Sir John Lawson of Burgh Hall, 1st Bart., died at Whitby 11 June
1833 aged 104 years. Buried at Whitby 16 June 1833, having married first, Barbara , daughter
of Henry William Elders of Egton (she was buried at Egton 28 December 1771), and secondly,
4 April 1780, Jane Hoggarth of Whitby (buried at Egton 9 April 1816, aged 78 years).  By his
first wife he had issue etc etc etc.  

Comment by bh - So Jane would have been born 1738 and aged 42 when she got married.  Possibly she was married twice and may not have been born a HOGGARTH.  The facts above match, and may be taken from, O'Connor - apart from O'Connor saying that Jane died on 9th April rather than was buried on that date.

North Riding Landowners 1871

It was a surprise not to find any of my relatives there since I know they were farming around Whitby at that time.   I suppose it just means they were leasing the farm land.  I checked the land ownership of my ALLIN family who were in Fryup.  Joseph ALLIN (brother of GG Gmam Elizabeth) had 16 acres.  He was farming about 200 acres at Ajalon / Applegarth so the small amounts of acres shown in the table above should not be taken as the size of the farm which the people were running.  
For those as ignorant as me about old land measures there are 4 roods to an acre and 40 perches to a rood.   


Edward Hoggarth MALING

Having done a search on the www.historicaldirectories.org site for "Hoggarth" I found in Ward's Directory for Northumberland and Durham, 1850 an entry for Edward Hoggarth MALING, surgeon, 24 Fawcett St., Bishopwearmouth, Sunderland.   

Then in September 2004 I received the following email:

I was surfing when I came across your site with Edward Hoggarth Maling surgeon of 24 Fawcett Street, Bishopwearmouth listed (found in a Directory I believe).  His correct name is Edward Haygarth Maling and he is my great grandfather.  The Haygarth name is from the Kendal area and is the maiden name of his mother, Elizabeth Haygarth.  Her father, William Haygarth was in the Royal Navy and was later appointed as the first Governor of the Naval Knights of Windsor.  He lived in the grounds of Windsor Castle and is buried in St George's Chapel, Windsor.

John HOGGARTH of Robin Hoods Bay

When I was looking for the death certificate of my G3 Gdad in 18?? I acquired a few certificates for the deaths of non-related John HOG*s which can be seen over in Rod's pages.  One of these was for the 1878 death of John HOGGARTH who was a 67 year old ship owner of Robin Hoods Bay.  From his age he'd have been born in 1811.  

He's no relation to anyone I know but he keeps popping up:  

For reasons which I've long forgotten I have a certificate for the birth in Robin Hoods Bay on 20th April 1851 of a John HOGGARTH whose mother was Elizabeth (nee WALLER) and his father was John HOGGARTH, Master Mariner.  

From the January 2003 edition of the Cleveland FHS Journal; Ships of Whitby extracted from Turnbull's Register of 1856 by Peter HOGG: 
Ship BRITANNIA, port WHIT56, Off No. 22410, rig BRIG, master J. HOGGARTH, built 1806 ABERDEEN, 130 Tons, owners J. HOGGARTH & C. SEDMAN, Robin Hood's Bay.  
Ship UNITY, port WHIT56, Off No. 5096, rig hm, , master M. HOGARTH, built 1817 Bridlington, 80 Tons, owners J HOGGARTH & Co. Robin Hood's Bay.  (I do not know what the abbreviation "hm" stands for wrt the ships rig.  It is used for a few vessels which are about 80 Tons displacement)  

From 1863 Crew lists and agreements (supplied by Yvonne Leck from Teeside Archives) 
HOGGARTH  John age 53 born Whitby.  Master on the 'George' reg Whitby 1861, 175 ton.  His address RH Bay Jan - June 1863.  West H'Pool to London.  On the same ship is William HOGGARTH apprentice age 19 born H'Pool (indenture date 12/3/1859)

In the 1865 List of the Robin Hoods Bay Ship Insurance Association there is a John Hoggarth, owner of the 'George', 175 tons, with John Hoggarth as master"  

In 1868 John (probably) is mentioned in the Poll Book for West Hartlepool where he presumably had some property.  In those days you could have a vote where you lived and, if you owned property in a different town, a vote there as well.  


Edward HOGGETT of Sherston, 1733

From the January 2003 edition of the Cleveland FHS Journal; Yarm Apprenticeship Indentures; courtesy of Ann Currie:

1 January 1732/33 - Thomas REED, Thomas HICKS, William COATES & Charles KNOWLES, churchwardens and overseers, bind John ALDERSON, a poor child of Yarm to Edward HOGGETT of Sherston, Co. Durham, cordwainer... 


1868 Poll Book for Durham
(North)

Robert HOGGETT voted in Trimdon and also Durham, he lived in the latter.  Under St Giles he voted for the two Liberal candidates and is said to have lived at Gilesgate. 

In the Heworth District voted a Robert HOGARTH of Heworth Shore - split his vote between Elliott the Tory and Bell, one of the Liberals.  

In Westoe of the South Shields district John HOGGET of Queen-Street  plumped for the Tory George Elliott.  

(South)

In Darlington a William HOGGETT of Brunswick Street voted for Surtees and Russell the two Tories.  

In Hartlepool a Christopher HOGGETT of Hartlepool voted for Surtees and Russell the two Tories.  

In Stanhope (Stanhope district) a William HOGARTH of Bolt's Barn and a Wilson HOGARTH of Stanhope both voted for the Liberals Pease and Blackett-Beaumont.  They were listed under the Old Franchise.  Under the New Franchise:
John HOGGARTH of Bolt's Barn seems not to have voted
Robert HOGGARTH of Smailes Burn voted for the two Liberals
James HOGGARTH of Brandon Walls voted for the two Liberals.  

Under Stranton (West Hartlepool District) is John HOGGARTH of Robin Hoods Bay who seems not to have voted.  This is very likely to be the Ship Owner who died in 1878 aged 67; on his death certificate the death was reported by Edward Storm. 
Stranton is the old name for West Hartlepool and these days Old and West Hartlepool is just called Hartlepool. In the 1868 vote Hartlepool was a separate District from West Hartlepool.  


 Some Mariners

 The following was provided by Yvonne Leck from a microfilm from the National Maritime Museum ship registers which she was searching in Whitby.  

HOGGARTH George master of the vessel "Mary" a 50ft cutter 6/4/1813. 
HOGGARTH John master of the vessel "Two Brothers" a 53ft cutter.  Lythe, Ellerby.  Half owner.  John was master 1807 Ellerby.  

Again from Yvonne (in Jan 2003) from Crew Lists:

 John Hoggard of Otley

From Borthwick Wallet 8 (some examples of Manorial records), Facsimile 11 - List of Fines (i.e. rents) for Otley manor in the court rolls.  

Here Richard Hogg pays a fine "with John Hoggard conditional".  A "conditional surrender" is a mortgage, described as such because the surrender is subject to, or conditional upon, the terms of the mortgage.

Old William

In "Life and Tradition in the Moorlands of North-East Yorkshire, by Marie HARTLEY and Joan INGILBY" it says on page 113:
William HOGGARTH, born in 1838 at Egton Bridge, lived to be 100, and after work in Middlesbrough and at the furnaces at Glaisdale finished his career as the local blacksmith at Glaisdale End.


Suicide of Hannah HOGGARTH

From "Round and About the North Yorkshire Moors" page 8:
Following the road east out from the Hamlet [Littlebeck] along the comically named Lousy Hill Lane, we arrive at the cross roads known as Red Gate. It was here where the remains of people who were not allowed to be buried in consecrated ground were laid to rest.
Now only the names Soulsgrave Farm and Soulsgrave Slack, and a solitary memorial stone at GR 904039 to Hannah HOGGARTH who committed suicide about 1750 and buried here-about, serve to remind us of this inhospitable graveyard among the moors.  

In September 2003 my wife and I looked for a memorial stone at the cross roads but failed to find it.  


John HOGGARTH of RHB

The following information was sent to me by Roy STORM - "in the 1865 List of the Robin Hoods Bay Ship Insurance Association there is a John Hoggarth, owner of the 'George', 175 tons, with John Hoggarth as master"
This is probably the same John HOGGARTH whose death certificate can be found on The Hogarth Family pages (www.hogarth.org.uk) under Reference Section, BMDs, Death Certs.
Also see the 1868 Poll book extracts above.

SALTERSGATE

Just below the bend known as The Devil's Elbow on the A169 between Pickering and Whitby stands the Saltersgate Inn. The original inn was built around 1630 of Flemish bricks. Formerly known as The Coach and Horses, it was as the name suggests, a coaching inn and when Charles Thistle took it over in 1929 the stables for horses, where a change were kept, were still in existence as were the Postboys beds in the attick.
In the days of the Salt Tax fish was smuggled from Robin Hood's Bay to be salted and the Thistles discovered that the salt cupboards were still in the kitchen and there were racks in the cellars where the fish would be dried. The Thistles had the place until 1960.
Early this century Major Mitchelson, of Pickering, arranged a shoot on the moors and it was made known to Mrs. Hoggard, who was the landlady at that time, that King Edward was coming to lunch. Great effort was expended over several days to get everything ship-shape and ready. On the morning of the appointed day there was a knock on the front door. When Mrs. Hoggard opened it, two gentlemen standing there asked if they could have a glass of ale. The landlady said, 'Come your ways in and sit by the fire; you can have some ale, but you will have to drink it from a cup, 'cause t' king's coming.' The gentlemen were Major Mitchelson and the king. Just the sort of prank that the major would play on the landlady, for he was a great practical joker, and I'm 'sure the king would enjoy the caper also.

David Stagg's YRK HOGARTHs

The information below was sent in by David C. Stagg on 19 March 2000. I've taken the liberty of rearranging it to suit my understanding and hope I have not messed up the facts.

William George Hogarth, Father of Robert and George below:
Robert Hogarth b. 24 Apr 1896, d. 18 Dec 1970, Father of Olwen below: (York)
George Hogarth b. 21 Feb 1910, d. 26 Sep 1993.

Olwen Hogarth b. 25 Mar 1926 (Rangbrook), d. 22 Sep 1994 (Grimsby)
Olwen is David's Mother. Nora may be a sister of Olwen but I can't see how Joan could be if the dates are right.
