Source notes
- Assuming Robert Logan is approximately the same age as Euphamia, he would have been around 50 at the start of the Civil War. This seems old for a soldier. There is another Robert Logan (age 19) in the 1860 census for Slippery Rock Twp. and despite the reference in Source #6 (John W. Jourdan's history), this younger Robert Logan may be the Civil War veteran.
- 1850 and 1860 census searches for Butler County give a Robert Logan b. ca. 1800 living with other people, but no evidence of Euphamia.

W1 | Flitch-McGowan-Hockaday-Brown family tree, on Ancestry.com, owner "mflitch7", no email address. Site lists descendants of Euphema Massey Stoughton and Robert Logan, Jr. (children Adaline, Clarissa,Martha, Eliza Jane (1825-1888),& Hannah Logan (1837-????)). Site lists parents of Euphema Stoughton as Catherine Covert and (erroneously, we believe) John Walker Stoughton. See John Stoughton for discussion. The site also gives for Euphema a marriage date of before 1825, a notation of "separation from Robert Logan, Jr" dated 21 Nov 1827, and a death date for Euphema of 1841. Sources listed for Euphema Massey Stoughton are the 1810 & 1820 census for J. Stoughton family, & the 1830 & 1840 census for Robert Logan family. None of these census list children's names, marriage or death dates, so sources for this information not specified. This site includes a photo portrait of Eliza Jane Logan |
