Colonial & Revolutionary Families of
Pennsylvania; Geneological and Personal Memoires, Vol. I:
ěWilliam Logan, 2nd son of James Logan,
born in Philadelphia July 14 1718, at the age of twelve years was
sent to England to be educated under the care of his uncle and namesake,
Dr. William Logan, a prominent and wealthy physician of Bristol, England,
and remained there until he arrived at manhood. On his return to Philadelphia
he engaged in the mercantile trade with his father, and was made attorney
of the Penn family on the death of Andrew Hamilton in 1741. He was actively
engaged in trade until the death of his father, in 1751, when becoming
the owner of ěStentonî he took up his residence there and devoted himself
to agriculture.
He was elected to the Common Council of
Philadelphia, October 4, 1743, and remained a member of that body until
the municipal government of the city was suspended by the Revolution in
1776. When his father on May 29, 1747, sent word to the Governorís Council
that he no longer considered himself to be a member of that body, William
Logan was immediately called to take his place, and he continued a member
of Council until his death on October 28, 1776. He was a far stricter
Quaker than his father, and was always actively opposed to war on any pretext.
He voted against the proposition to Council to pay for Indian scalps, on
April 6, 1756, and against the declaration of war four days later.
With his cousin,
Israel Pemberton, and others, he formed the Peace Association, and offered
to go at his own expense to the Delaware Indians to persuade them to lay
down their arms and enter into a treaty of Peace. Sir William Johnston,
Governor of New York, being already negotiating a peace treaty with them,
the argument of the Peace Association carried considerable weight and William
Logan was one of the delegates to the Conference with the Indians at Easton,
when peace was declared.
William Logan cared
less for literary and scientific pursuits than his father. He was an extensive
traveller and left a Journal of some of his rambles, notably that of a
visit to Georgia. With his brother James and sister, Hanna Smith, he on
August 29, 1754, deeded library property, designed by his father for the
use of the people of Philadelphia, to a board of trustees, consisting of
himself, his brother James, Israel Pemberton Jr., his first cousin, William
Allen, Richard Peters and Benjamin Franklin; William Logan acting as Librarian
until his death. He also bequeather to the library thirteen hundred
volumes bequeather to him by his uncle, Dr. William Logan, of Bristol,
England, with the provision that such as were duplicates of what the library
already contained, should be given to the Philadelphia Library.
Conscientiously opposed to
war, and deeply attached to the Penn family whom he had long represented
in America, William Logan naturally held aloof from active part in the
revolutionary struggle, and like many others of his ilk, was often an object
of suspicion, and had he lived until the British threatened Philadelphia,
would doubtless have been arrested and subjected to considerable annoyance
as were many other wealthy and influential men of his class. He lived
quietly at ěStentonî during the inception of the national struggle
and attended the meetings of Provincial Council long after the battle of
Lexington.
Like his father, he was a
great friend of the Indians, travelled among them frequently without an
armed escort, even in days when Indian atrocities had alarmed the
whole frontier; and frequently entertained large delgatives of the aborigines
at ěStentonî. He lived a life of activity and good deeds thoroughly consistent
with his religious belief. He died at ěStentonî, Oct 29, 1776, and
was buried at the Friendsí Burying Ground. He Married, March 24,
1740, Hannah Emlen, daughter of George Emlen, born in Philadelphia June
1, 1722, died at ěstentonî, Jan 30, 1777.î33
Provincial Councillers:
ěWilliam Logan , b. 5mo., 14, 1718 , son
of James Logan , the President of the Council, and himself a Councillor,
was sent, when twelve years old, to his uncle, Dr. William Logan , in Bristol,
England . His father's letter of advice to him, on his leaving home, is
printed in Hazard 's Register. Watson 's Annals tells us that he finished
his education in the mother country. After his return, he engaged in business
with his father, and also was made attorney with him, for some of the Penn
family. He was a merchant until the death of his father, when he became
owner of Stenton , and devoted himself more particularly to agriculture.
He was a Common Councilman of the City from 1743 until February, 1776 ,
when the meetings of the Corporation were discontinued. On May 29th, 1747
, when James Logan sent word that he no longer considered himself a member
of the Governor's Council, his son William was called to the Board, and
appeared and qualified. He was a stricter Quaker than his father, and had
a goodly amount of independence, even voting against the Governor's candidate
for member of Assembly, when the object of the other party was to change
the form of government. In the troublesome period which followed Braddock's
defeat, he was very active, not in preparing for war, but, consistent with
his principles, in trying to prevent it. In the middle of the winter, he
went with the Governor to Carlisle , to see what attitude the Indians of
that neighborhood would assume. On April 6th, 1756 , Logan voted "no."
Four days later, some members of the Society of Friends addressed the Council
against declaring war; and there were others besides Quakers in the Colony
who suspected that some special grievance had caused the red man to yield
to the solicitations of the French. Logan moved that summons be sent for
a full meeting of the Council that evening. This was done. Strettell and
other Quaker members attended in the evening, but agreed to the declaration
of war, and Logan 's solitary dissent was entered on the minutes. His cousin,
Israel Pemberton , and others, about this time, formed themselves into
the Peace Association, and offered to go or send at their own expense to
persuade the Delawares to lay down their arms. Some friendly Indians became
the ambassadors. It happened that, at the time Pennsylvania was declaring
war, Sir William Johnson , in New York , was effecting a negotiation with
the Delawares, and he wrote to General Shirley that the step taken by Pennsylvania
without asking the concurrence of the other colonies, or even notice to
them, was a very unaccountable proceeding. Logan attended the conference
at Easton , where peace was proclaimed. He could always be depended upon
to accompany the Lieutenant-Governor, or take a journey alone, when Indian
affairs required it. He received Indians cordially at his house, giving
the aged a settlement on his land, and educating the young with his own
means. He was in favor of force to protect the Indians who were threatened
by the Paxton boys in 1764 . He was quite a traveller, and has left a journal
of his visit to Georgia . He was at home during that portion of the Revolutionary
war which he lived to see, attending the meetings of the Provincial Council
long after the battle of Lexington . He took no active part in the struggle.
William Logan , with his brother and Mrs. Smith , deeded the library property,
August 28th, 1754 , to Israel Pemberton , Jr., William Allen , Richard
Peters , and Benjamin Franklin , to be with William Logan and his brother,
James Logan , the Trustees or managers; and William Logan acted as librarian
until his death. Furthermore, by his will, he added to the collection the
books bequeathed to him by his uncle, Dr. Logan , about thirteen hundred
volumes, providing, however, that such as were duplicates of those already
in the Loganian library, should be given to the July 25th, 1772 . The witnesses
were Samuel Morris , Jr., Israel Morris , Jr., and Edward Middleton . It

PHILADELPHIA LOW CHEST LEADS THE
WAY IN FREEMANíS INAUGURAL AMERICANA SALE http://www.freemansauction.com/news_docs/HTML%20Files/1153post-sale.htm
ěFreshness and solid provenance were two
important factors in the strong price for the low chest, which descended
in the Logan and Fisher families through Sarah Logan Fisher
(1751-1796) to William Logan Fisher (1781-1862)
to Mary Rodman Fisher Fox (1822-1903) to Joseph Mickle Fox (1853-1918)
to Eliza Middleton Fox Tilghman to Joseph Fox
Tilghman to the consignors. The chest
may have been one of the items William Logan commissioned for his daughter
Sarahís marriage to Thomas Fisher ? a very close friend of
Thomas Affleck ? in 1772. ě
ěLemon Hill was built on grounds once owned
by Robert Morris (1734?1806), the
Philadelphia merchant and entrepreneur who
bankrolled Washingtonís army. By 1770,
Morris began to accumulate parcels of land along the east bank of the Schuylkill
River. On
this site he raised cattle and hogs imported from England as well as a
Spanish mereno
ram, which he delivered to Thomas Jefferson in the hope of developing a
woolen industry
in America. Morrisís estate, known as The Hills, also included an elegant
greenhouse
surrounded by a large garden with the ěbest fruit trees, partly improved
for the Kitchen
and partly for pleasure.î While not the first in Philadelphia, it was,
according to Morris, ěby
far the Compleatest of anything of the kind in America.î
William Logan, son of William Pennís secretary James Logan, also had greenhouses
at his
house in town and at his country seat, Stenton, located in the Germantown
area of
Philadelphia. Here were grown the orange and lemon trees that were recorded
as having
been given to someone ěunfortunate in business,î and then sold at auction
to Morris. In
1799, Morris was forced to sell all of his holdings to satisfy his creditors.
Pratt purchased a
portion of the property and named his house Lemon Hill, after the famous
lemon trees in
the Morris greenhouse.2î

Who were some time Chief Magistrates of the Province, and their Descendants
Children:
ěTheir
courtship as gleaned from the diary of John Smith, is the subject
of a delightful book, entitled "Hannah Logan's Courtship", recently
published, which gives us the best
picture of Colonial life in Philadelphia to be found in our later day literature.
The introduction to the diary opens with an account of the visit to "Stenton",
June 1, 1744, of the Indian Commissioners from Virginia, on their way to
meet the Iroquois chieftans at Lancaster to negotiate a treaty, and quotes
from the Journal of William Black, the Secretary of the Commission, published
in the Pennsylvania Magazine; and the merry young Secretary thus describes
his impressions of Hannah Logan, "At last the Tea Table was set and one
of his daughters presented herself in Order to fill out the Fashionable
Warm Water; I was really very much surprised at the appearance of so Charming
a Woman, in a place where the seeming moroseness and Goutified Father's
Appearance Promised no such Beauty, tho' it must be allowed the Man seem'd
to have some Remains of a handsome enough person, and a Complection beyond
his years.
"But to return to the Lady, I declare I
burnt my Lips more than once, being quite thoughtless of the warmness of
my Tea, entirely lost in Contemplating her Beauties. She was tall and slender,
but Exactly well shap'd, her Features Perfect softness, denoting a compos'd
Temper and Serenity of Mind. Her Manner was Grave and Resev'd and to be
short, she had a Sort of Majesty in her Person and Agreeableness in her
Behavior, which at once Surprised and Charmed the Beholders." 44
