The child of Mr. Logan was my Grandfather, Moses Carrywater (born 1988). I am curious where you got your information from or where I can get further information about Harvey and the Carrywater girl. My mother's maiden name Carrywater. Mr. Colin Taylor I found it interesting you mentioned a Carrywater girl who had a child from Mr. Logan.

Burdick. He died in Dover, NJ in 1963. I remember my father, Reginald Mason Logan, telling me about when he was a young boy he and his father went to Rawlins to the State of Wyoming pen to see someone his father knew although he did not mention a name. When my father asked the man in jail what he was "in for" his father smacked him and told him it was none of his business. I think my father was ashamed of the possibility of any connections to outlaws or knowledge thereof and never spoke of it again. I am fascinated by this...would like any info to relatives of the above mentioned people. I also have a cousin named Bruce Logan, son of Thomas (Tommy) T. Logan (deceased) from California. Thank you for any help you can be. My grandfather, Moses Chandler Logan, was born in Iowa on November 15, 1876 to Jonathan Buchanan Logan and Samantha S. Burdick. He died in Dover, NJ in 1963.
