  • Notes 
    • William Logston came to America from England around age 13, as an indentured servant to Lord Baltimore. He was later able to purchase land and he and Honora became wealthy landowners.

      William Logston was sold as an indentured servant, the British were known for rounding up many who crossed their path and shipped to America as workers. William may have been sold by his own family....but he also may have been captured against his will.
