I have been doing alot of reading about the western Virginia frontier. Chief Logan's family was massacred however a niece survived and was taken by whites for adoption. Sometimes native children were taken as hostages to exchange for white children who had been kidnapped. Let me know if you need more or specific information and I'll see if I have that reference handy. Marcy L. Keith
