Is there a Hoog family where the surname is originally Swedish? I doubt it is in this case, but who knows.
Isn’t Rasmussen Danish?
Hoog may be after Scottish surname Hogg.
It’s both.
There are a lot of Hoogs born in Sweden, but I don’t know if they are originally Swedish or if their ancestors were pouring across the border or something.
Höög is definitely Swedish, yes. But in the U.S. it seems like Hoog most often has other origins.
I don’t know if his grandfather is also from Fort Collins, Colorado, but there was a couple named Hoog who lived there, which he could be descended from. In their case, it doesn’t look like their surname is Swedish.
