After I voted I googled the definition and was amazed to see it was wactually a word I had learnt many years ago in high school. There was a series of novels set in England about a family who started a drayage or cartage business and these novels followed the family through several generations. Somewhere in an early one there was a discussion about having to build their own roads using hoggin or possibly hauling hoggin for the company building the roads. Cannot now remember either the novels or the novelist, but it was my fist experience with dynastic novels and I was hooked big time on them.
