Autorenporträt
James Hogg was born on a small farm near Ettrick, Selkirkshire, Scotland in 1770 and was baptised there on 9 December, his actual date of birth having never been recorded. His father, Rrt Hogg (1729¿1820), was a tenant farmer while his mother, Margaret Hogg (née Laidlaw) (1730¿1813), was noted for collecting native Scottish ballads. Margaret Laidlaw's father, known as Will o' Phawhope, was said to have been the last man in the Border country to speak with the fairies. James was the second eldest of four brothers, his siblings being William, David, and Rrt (from eldest to youngest). Rrt and David later emigrated to the United States, while James and William remained in Scotland for their entire lives.
