History
Jon Hogg fought in the battle at the Great Fork for King Maegor I Targaryen. He was later killed by members of the Warrior's Sons.[3][4]
Ser Harys Hogg was a favourite of the smallfolk at tourneys during the early reign of King Jaehaerys I Targaryen.[5]
Priscella Hogg was a companion to Queen Daenaera Velaryon who was accused of a poisoning attempt against members of the royal household. Priscella was deemed to have only played a minor role in the plot, and on account of her sex, Lord Torrhen Manderly gave her a minor punishment. She was condemned to have her nose cut off, with the understanding that the punishment would be stayed should she give herself to the Faith, so long as she remained true to her vows.[6]
