Note: This LOGUE family may not have been in the Ottawa area. I'm posting these two
e-mails because I'm interested in the surname Logue and also in persons who migrated
from Canada to Iowa.

I'm searching for information about my g-g grandmother, Margaret Magee (McGee), born 
in Ireland about 1820.  She was the second wife of my g-g grandfather Patrick Logue, 
born in Co. Donegal in about 1800.  Patrick emigrated to Canada in about 1841.  
Margaret Magee and Patrick Logue would have married after 1842 and before 1856, 
the date of the birth of their first son in eastern Ontario.  U.S. census information 
shows her first name as Margaret, but her oldest son's death certificate shows it as 
Catherine.  Margaret and Patrick emigrated from Ontario to Howard County, Iowa, USA in 
about 1862.  Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, My name is Bonnie Haugen, I live in Moorhead, Minn. I am tracking family members on 
my father's side of family. From my research so far I have established that my great,great 
grandfather William Logue and his wife Margaret Hannegan / Hannigan came to North America 
via Canada some time between 1840-1844. They had 4 sons 3 were born in Ireland, James, Allen 
and Micheal(my great grandfather). The last son was born in Canada, his name was William J. 
Logue. They came into the United States I'm not sure of when. I found them in the Howard County, 
Cresco, Iowa area in 1860. In going through your material on the internet tonight, I did 
find a Patrick Logue born in Ireland in 1800 married to Margaret McGee from Donegal.  I believe 
Patrick and William Logue were brothers. William Sr. was born in 1812. Also a Daniel Hannegan 
married to Catherine Carroll who I believe is Margaret Hannegen Logue's ?parents, ?brother.  
If you can give me some guide lines on covering the years they lived in Canada, what particular 
province. My family from what I can gather all came from northern Ireland.  
I'm also trying to establish a relationship to a James Logue who possibly is William's father.  
The older brother's of Micheal my great grandfather, didn't show up in the Iowa censuses, 
possibly they remained in Canada.   
Thank you.

Al: 

Since posting my first message, I have discovered my g-g grandfather Patrick Logue's 
family in Oxford Twp., Kemptville, Ontario, as well as Bonnie Haugen's g-g grandfather 
William Logue's (spelled Loag in the census) family.  We believe that Patrick and William 
are brothers.  Patrick first appears in 1848 in land assessment records.  Both William 
Logue's family and Patrick and his first wife Susan's family appear there in the 1851 
census and Patrick, his second wife Margaret Magee and their family (my family) appear 
there in the 1861 census.  Patrick Logue and Margaret Magee must have married there 
after the death of Susan (maiden name unknown) Logue between the 1851 census and the 
birth of Patrick and Margaret's first son, in 1855/1856.  We believe that William, 
his family and Patrick's sons from the first family emigrated to Howard County, Iowa, 
USA in about 1859. Patrick, his daughters from the first family and his second family 
followed sometime shortly after the 1861 census.  I am sure one of the Magee families 
that appear in the 1851 and 1861 censuses in Oxford Twp. must be my g-g grandmother 
Margaret Magee Logue's family.  To the best of my knowledge, she was Roman Catholic, 
born in Ireland.  Patrick's daughter, Mary Jane "Jane" Logue was also married a 
Roger McGee, presumably in Oxford Twp., before they emigrated to the US.  Does anyone 
have any information about any of the Oxford Twp., Kemptville Magee/McGee families?

Charles Logue opened the famous inn, "Chateau Logue" beside the Gatineau
River in Maniwaki. He was well known in that area from about the 1840's.
The Logues and the history of the Chateau Logue is well documented in
Stephen McGregor's book on the Algonquin people at Maniwaki.

I came across the story of the Chateau Logue and I would like to straighten out a 
few facts about this beautiful house.
 
My father, Ernest Nault, bought the house in 1929 from a Charlie Logue.  He and my 
mother moved from Montcerf with 9 children and two others, myself and our brother 
Ernest Jr. were born in Maniwaki. We were 11 children in the family and we all grew 
up in Maniwaki in this magnificient home.  If you care to go and visit this 
"Chateau", you will be surprised to see a beautiful room dedicated to Ernest Nault 
and Florence Moore (our mother and father).  Their pictures are well displayed 
on top of the mantle. It makes us very proud to see these beautiful pictures of 
our parents and this beautiful room dedicated to them.  I would be interested in 
reading Stephen McGregor's book on the Algonquin people at Maniwaki. 
Please advise as to where I can obtain this book.

Thanks to Lynn Logue for the following:

From "The History of Assumption Parish, " Cresco, State of Iowa, USA:
 
The Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary Church dates from the year 1858, making 
it the oldest Catholic Church in Howard County. Four pioneer Catholic Families from 
North Gore [sic], Canada moved to the area about that time. Their names were:  Ryan, 
Welsh, Hannegan / Hannigan, and Christmas.  Masses were celebrated in their homes by missionary 
priests from Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin, USA, and by Father Clement Lowrey, pastor 
of the Catholic Church in Decorah. When neither was available the four families boarded 
a wagon and drove to Spillville, 20 miles away to attend Mass.  The original four 
families were soon joined by another twelve families named: Long, Schaefer, Mullen, 
Sweet, Carroll, Donahue, Glass, Ploff (Plouffe?), Logue, Conry, Barnes, and Reynolds. 
Together they built the first church and established a cemetery at Vernon Springs in 
1863 and 1664.

Hello Lynn,
My name is Adam Logue from Cape Breton and I came across your posts on the
bytown website. I'd love to learn what you know about the Logues around
Ottawa.
Here's my possible connection. My g-g-g-grandfather, Richard Logue of
Strabane, Ireland left at the age of 30 with wife and other family headed
for Ottawa in 1837. The ship hit a storm in the gulf and suffered a broken
mast and had to pull into Sydney for repairs. He and his wife decided to
stay in Sydney but apparently there was other family who continued on to
Ottawa once the repairs were complete. I don't have any names for the other
family members nor a ships name. I am currently trying to find a passenger
list.
I'd be grateful for any information you may be able to provide.
Best regards,
Adam Logue
