This is the closest I could come. A Charles Logan was the first sheriff of Christian Co., KY in 1797-98. Since Sheriff is also a given name, I looked for that too, but found no Logans. The following Logans are in the 1810 VA census index in Washington Co., VA: James, James Jr., and Robert. In 1820: Andrew, John, William S., and Robert. By 1870, there were 16 Logans in the county, all in Abingdon or Glade Spring Twp. There were no Stapletons listed in 1810, 1820 or 1870 index in the county, but they may have been there in 1790 and 1800 (I don't have an index for those years for VA). --- "Edgar A.
