     LOGAN L. BROWN.  Among the prosperous farmers and highly
respected citizens of McCracken county, Kentucky, is the subject of
this sketch, Logan L. Brown, whose identity with this county dates
from 1887.
     Mr. Brown was born in Henderson county, Kentucky, in the year
1842, and comes from North Carolina and Virginia ancestry, his
parents, Charles W. and Rachel (Green) Brown, having been born in
North Carolina and Virginia, respectively.  His grandfather, William
Brown, was a Scotchman who settled in North Carolina at an early
day; and his maternal grandfather, Peter Green, was a native of the
Old Dominion.  Charles W. Brown was a soldier in the war of 1812, a
participant in the battle of New Orleans, and was a prosperous
farmer.  His two sons, Peter B. and Logan L. Brown, continued in the
occupation in which they were reared, both becoming successful
farmers, Peter B. now being a resident of Henderson county.
     Logan L. Brown had not yet emerged from his teens when the
great Civil war broke out, but his youthful spirit was fired with
love of native land and he went out in 1861 as a soldier in the
Confederate service.  He shared the fortunes of the southern army
until 1864, when he returned home and settled down to farming in
Henderson county, and two years later was married.  In 1887 he moved
with his family to McCracken county, where he has since been
successfully engaged in agricultural pursuits.
     Mr. Brown was married in 1866 to Miss Lizzie Rue, daughter of
Stanford Rue, a well known farmer of Henderson county, and their
children are Charles, Anestion, Ottist and Elmer.  Mrs. Brown died
in 1889.  Politically Mr. Brown is a Republican and has ever taken
an active interest in local politics.  He is a member of the Grand
Army of the Republic.
