Descendants of Richard Hoag, Sr.

His grandson, John Hoag, Sr., emigrated to Massachusetts in about 1650. John's fourth great-grandson, Philip Peter Hoag, was born in New York in 1818. He lived briefly in Michigan, before moving to Monroe County in the 1860's.

Peter married three times, and many of his 13 children and their spouses and descendants lived in the Tomah and Sparta areas.
