Abraham Lincoln Hogg

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Abraham Lincoln Hogg is a fictional character on the American television series The Dukes of Hazzard.

Abraham Lincoln Hogg is the twin brother of Jefferson Davis Hogg, better known as Boss Hogg, and in many ways is his complete opposite. Where Boss Hogg is the namesake of Jefferson Davis, the President of the Confederate States and leader of the Confederate States Army during the American Civil War, Abraham Lincoln Hogg was named for Abraham Lincoln, the President of the United States and leader of the Union Army. Unlike Boss Hogg, who wears all white, drives a white Cadillac, and is dishonest, Abraham Lincoln Hogg wears all black, drives a black Cadillac, and is honest. Abraham Lincoln Hogg is described by his brother as the "white sheep" of the Hogg family and the shame of the whole Hogg clan.

Sorrell Booke played the role of Abraham Lincoln Hogg as well as Boss Hogg.
