| 4. | William Logsdon was born on 9 Sep 1663 in Bedfordshire, England (son of James Logsdon and Jane James); died on 15 Jan 1742. Notes:
Recently it has been documented that William Logsdon Sr. was born 9/13/1663 of James Logsdon and Jane James, who were married 6/26/1662 at St. John's Church, Bedfordshire, England. William came to America in 1673/74 landing near Baltimore on a ship commanded by Capt. Samuel Smith. According to family history, William paid for his passage over by working four years with various tobacco planters living along the Patapsco River in Maryland/Md. At the end of his 'indentureship' he went up the Big Pipe Creek and bought a 300 acre tract of land near the southern border of Pennsylvania/Pa., which he named "Brotherly Love." Mr. Logsdon cleared the land, raised livestock, and made tobacco his chief crop, which was sold in England.
At the age of 39, in 1702, William selected a young Irish lass, Honora 0' Flynn, to be his wife. She was only 16, part of a shipload of young women kidnapped on the southern coast of Ireland, Kerry Co., to become brides of pioneer bachelor planters. Seven children were born of this marriage: Ann, b. 1703; William Jr., b. 1705; Honora, b. 1707; Thomas, b. 1710; Prudence, b. 1712; Edward, b. 1714; and John, b. 1716. William Sr. died between 9/22/1730 and 3/3/1742.
William married Honora O'Flynn in 1702. Honora was born about 1686; died after 1742. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
