Philip LOGSDON - I am looking for information on my ancestor, Philip LOGSDON.  He was born about 1845 in Kentucky.  His parents were J. V. LOGSDON and Rachel GROSS.  Philip and his family moved to Indiana.  He married Pareen BOYD in 1874 in Spencer County, Indiana.  He had two children: Preston in 1875 and Moravia in 1878.  He died sometime after that because his wife remarried and for the 1880 Census she is living with her father.  Any information would be greatly appreciated.  Please contact Tiffany Michaelson at  tfausett81@yahoo.com
