Kellogg
Kellogg in Essex
This project started out as an attempt to find the ancestry of Nicholas Kellogg, who was born in or near Debden, Essex, in 1488. It seems quite certain that the origin of this surname was Kelhog - a hog butcher - in northwest Essex. Below are several examples of Kelhog for the 13th and 14th centuries within about 10 miles of Debden. Unfortunately, there are not enough records for the 15th century to prove a direct link to Nicholas Kellogg.
