I've checked out the place you've indicated, but I don't think it is the right one. My Bogg was definitely within the boundaries of the parish of Canonbie, which is a few miles south of Langholm on the A7, and that's a very long way from the Bogrie you mention. I do appreciate your suggestion though.
