| 4. | Lawrence Logsdon was born about 1800; died in 1886. Notes:
Lawrence LOGSDON was born about 1800. notes from Richard Koch:
Lawrence Logsdon b c1800 - died 1886, was aged79 in 1880. Lawrence Logsdon marriedMalinda Porter b 1799/1800 PA, daughter of William Porter. "William Porter, late of Allegany Co MD.(will written 20 May 1836, pr 25 Mar 1844) has wife unnamed, Children: Lendy Logsdon, wife of Lawrence Logsden, SarahLogsdon wife of Anthony Logsden.[1] He was age 10<15 (10) in 1810, marriedbefore 1820 census, he is m 18<26 and wife 16<26 in 1820 census, page 18. In 1830 the census index has him on page 38,which Letha Mitchell has read with Lawrence 20<30, wife 20<30 and 4 malesunder 10. By 1840 he has relocated toBedford Co PA where we have: m 40<50 (Lawrence), f 40<50 (Lendy-wife), 2m15<20, m 10<15, f 10<15, 2m 5<10, m <5, and f <5. This is undoubtedly the Lawrence Logsdon forwhich I have information from several descendents[1].

In 1870 Lawrence is age 70, Mary 71, Anthony is 37 34 with wife Rachel and two children, and Hiram 17. By 1880 he is 79 and living with son Moses and family.
Lawrence married Malinda Porter about 1820. Malinda (daughter of William Porter and Mary Nelson) was born in 1800 in Pennsylvania; died in UNKNOWN. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
