How to read this record
Every claim is tagged
Most family trees flatten everything into the same confident typeface. This one does not.
The three research tags below are the whole point of the exercise: they say what a document
proves, what the weight of evidence suggests, and what nobody has found yet. A fourth marks
what the family stated directly, where no document has been retrieved at all — it is kept
separate on purpose and is never quietly promoted to confirmed. A fifth, added on
13 September 2026, marks biological evidence: a DNA result is not a document, and it is not
testimony either. Two further labels mark where this page withholds information
rather than lacking it.
ConfirmedAttested by a document that was actually retrieved and read — a census sheet, a
government index, a grave marker, a family-written obituary.
ProbableStrongly supported but not nailed down: a user-contributed tree, a masked index field,
or a chain of consistent circumstances. Believable, not proven.
Not foundSearched for and not located. This is a statement about the search, not about the
person — the record may well exist somewhere unsearched.
Family testimonySupplied by the family and recorded on their word — no document has been retrieved for
it. Note the diamond rather than the dot: this is provenance, not proof, and it stands
apart from the three record tags above S24.
DNA evidenceBiological evidence consistent with a claim. It corroborates origins; it does
not by itself establish a person or a link. Note the bar rather than a dot or a diamond:
no DNA result on this page is ever counted as confirmed, because no document
was read for it S46.
Living — withheldThe person is living. By the privacy rule for this page, name and relationship are
shown, and at most a year the family has already published. Full dates of birth, ages,
places of residence and record identifiers are held back.
Research in progressA branch that is actively being worked on. The node exists in the structure so the
shape of the family is honest; the detail is simply not in yet.

Research status
Research status: PROBABLE, accepted by Earl 28 September 2026 pending more evidence, and added to the tree on his approval of 30 September 2026. Her place as
Mabel’s mother is read from the image of the 1930 census of Austin, where Virginia Logue, 62, widowed, born in Tennessee, is entered as the mother of the head, Mable Piland
S924 Confirmed; her maiden name is read from the image of the Calhoun County marriage register
S908. Added 30 September 2026
Evidence: In 1930 at Austin, read from the image, Virginia Logue, 62, widowed, born in Tennessee, lives with her daughter Mable Piland as Mable's mother; in 1900 at Waco, read from the image, Virginia A., born July 1867 in Tennessee, is the wife of D. C. Logue with their daughter Mable, born October 1895; the Calhoun County, Alabama, marriage register, read from the image, records the marriage of D. C. Logue and Virginia Alice Hamby on 2 April 1890; in 1910 she is at Cuero with Dan C. Logue and Mabel, 14, and in 1920 in Grayson County with him; in April 1950, read from the image, Virginia Logue, 81, widowed, born in Tennessee, is at Howe, Grayson County, as the mother-in-law of Harry R. Lewis, whose wife Ethel was born in Alabama about 1891. Weak or missing: The Hamby family has not been researched, so her parents are not found; her death is not found, though the 1950 census shows her alive; the 1930 census calls her a widow, which does not fit the 1939 death Find a Grave gives her husband; no record read here names her daughter Ethel as a Logue.

Life in the order the records give it
Birth1867
Born
July 1867 in Tennessee, by the 1900 census, read from the image, which gives her as Virginia A., married ten years, the mother of five children, four living
S906; the 1930 census gives her age as 62 and her birthplace as Tennessee
S924Census1910
🆕 In 1910 she lived at Cuero, DeWitt County, Texas, with Dan C. Logue, 52, manager of a cotton mill; she was 41, born in Tennessee, married 21 years and the mother of seven children, six living, and Mabel, 14, was at home
S1080. In January 1920 she was 51, in Grayson County, Texas, with her husband, entered as “Doctor C.” Logue, 60, of the cotton mill
S1081. added 30 September 2026
Death1950
🆕 On 10 April 1950 she was living at
Howe, Grayson County, Texas, as Virginia Logue, 81, widowed, born in Tennessee, the mother-in-law of the head, Harry R. Lewis, a cotton-mill oiler, in his house with his wife
Ethel, 59, born in Alabama, and their son James, 39
Confirmed S1101. That makes Ethel her daughter, born about 1891 in Alabama, the year after the Calhoun County marriage
Probable confirm or correct →. No record read here gives Ethel’s maiden name or birth record, and Virginia’s death is still not found
Family parents, marriages, children, siblings
Marriage1890
Wife of
Dan Crutcher Logue: the Calhoun County marriage register, read from the image, has
Virginia Alice Hamby marrying D. C. Logue in Calhoun County on
2 April 1890 S908 Probable confirm or correct →; Find a Grave names Dan’s wife as Virginia Alice Logue
S909Children1892
🆕 Mother of
Leola Logue Piland (1892–1938), whose death certificate, read from the image, names her mother as “Virginaa Alice”
S1113. That certificate gives Virginia’s birthplace as Texas, but its informant was Leola’s husband; the 1900, 1910 and 1950 censuses all say Tennessee, and Tennessee is kept
Probable confirm or correct →Open questions what is probable, weak or missing — confirm or correct it
Weak or missing
What is weak or missing: the marriage and the 1900 and 1950 censuses are now read from the images; the 1950 census shows her alive at 81, so she died after April 1950; the Hamby family has not been researched; the 1930 census calls her a widow, which does not fit the 1939 death Find a Grave gives her husband; her death and her parents are not found
In the record
Generation 5 — Kristin's great-great-grandparents
- S9061900 U.S. census — D. C. Logue household, Waco, Texas. Ancestry collection 7602, record 43883385. Waco Ward 1, McLennan County: D. C. Logue, 42, head; his wife Virginia A., 32, born July 1867 in Tennessee, married ten years; daughter “Mable”, 4, born October 1895 in Texas. Image examined in the Stage 2 reading, 30 September 2026: ED 71, sheet 1B, 1609 North 6th Street. Probable On the image: Logue, D. C., born November 1857, grocery salesman; Virginia A., born July 1867, Tennessee, married ten years, the mother of five children, four living; Ethel, born January 1891 in Alabama; Leola; Mable, born October 1895; Hazel; Halbert, born February 1900. The image agrees with the index. It gives D. C.’s birth as November 1857, a year before the 24 November 1858 of his Find a Grave memorial [S909]; Ethel’s Alabama birth in 1891 fits the 1890 Calhoun County marriage [S908].
- S908Calhoun County, Alabama, marriage register — D. C. Logue and Virginia Alice Hamby, 2 April 1890. Alabama County Marriage Records, Ancestry record 901501955, page 123; indexed in Ancestry collection 60000, records 118681 and 1420397. Image examined in the Stage 2 reading, 30 September 2026. Probable Licence issued 2 April 1890 by Emmett F. Crook, Judge of Probate, to join “D. C. Logue and Virginia Alice Hamby”; the return certifies that the minister solemnized the marriage the same day, 2 April 1890, signed Allen K. Moore(?), pastor of the Christian Church. Until 30 September 2026 this was read from the index only. The register gives no ages, parents or residences.
- S909Find a Grave memorial 97803773 — Dan Crutcher Logue (1858–1939). Gives his full name, his dates (24 November 1858 – 11 April 1939), his burial in West Hill Cemetery, Sherman, Texas, and his wife as Virginia Alice Logue. Probable A compiled memorial, not a record; the dates rest on it alone. Updated 30 September 2026 with the dates the memorial gives.
- S9241930 U.S. census — Mable Piland household, Austin, Travis County, Texas. Ancestry collection 6224, record 60697622. Image examined, read 28 September 2026. Confirmed ED 227-29, sheet 3A: Mable Piland, head, 34, widowed, born in Texas; Alice Lorena, daughter, 15, born in Texas; Virginia Logue, mother, 62, widowed, born in Tennessee. Mabel is widowed by April 1930, which fits Orbin's death in 1929.
- S10801910 United States Federal Census — Cuero, Ward 2, DeWitt County, Texas, ED 34, sheet 5A, dwelling 88. Ancestry record 168623911. Image examined in the Stage 2 reading, 30 September 2026. Probable Logue, Dan C., 52, manager of a cotton mill; Virginia A., 41, married 21 years, the mother of seven children, six living, born Tennessee; Leola, 17; Mabel, 14; Halbert, 10; and two younger sons. “Married 21 years” points to about 1889, a year before the 1890 licence [S908], within ordinary census error.
- S10811920 United States Federal Census — Justice Precinct 1, Grayson County, Texas, ED 66, sheet 5B. Ancestry record 22745876. Image examined in the Stage 2 reading, 30 September 2026. Probable 9–10 January 1920: Logue, “Doctor C.”, 60, born Tennessee, cotton mill, owns his home (mortgaged); Virginia A., 51, born Tennessee; and two sons, 17 and 14. “Doctor C.” is the enumerator’s expansion of “D. C.”; the 1910 census has Dan C. [S1080]. Grayson County is where Find a Grave buries him, at Sherman [S909].
- S11011950 United States Federal Census — Howe, Grayson County, Texas, ED 91-33, sheet 73, household of Harry R. Lewis. Ancestry record 188687634. Image examined in the Stage 2 reading, 1 October 2026. Confirmed 10 April 1950, 207 W. Front: Harry R. Lewis, head, 60, born Mississippi, oiler at the cotton mill; Ethel, wife, 59, born Alabama; James, son, 39, born Texas, fixer at the cotton mill; Logue, Virginia, mother-in-law, 81, widowed, born Tennessee. The index files this household under Swaney, the name on line 9 above it, a separate household; the image reads Lewis. “Mother-in-law” makes Ethel her daughter; no record read here names Ethel as a Logue.
- S1113Texas, Death Certificates, 1903–1982 — Leola Piland, Austin, Travis County, 12 February 1938, file 10327. Ancestry record 83530008. Image examined in the Stage 2 reading, 1 October 2026. Confirmed Mrs. Leola Piland, of Manor Road, Austin, married, wife of Ruben Piland; born 28 November 1892 at Galveston, Texas; aged 45 years, 2 months, 14 days; a housewife. Father D. C. Louge [sic], born in Tennessee; mother “Virginaa Alice” [sic], no maiden name given, born in Texas. Died 12 February 1938 at Seton Infirmary, Austin; buried in Oakwood Cemetery, Austin, 13 February 1938. Informant: Ruben Piland. Louge is a transposed Logue. The informant was her husband, not a family member of her parents’ generation; he gives her mother’s birthplace as Texas where the 1900, 1910 and 1950 censuses all say Tennessee.
- S1191FamilySearch index, California, County Marriages, 1850–1953 — Victor Quillen Logue and Mildred Warner Pool, 4 December 1926, Los Angeles. FamilySearch record K8NF-XF6, checked 1 October 2026. Probable Groom’s father D. C. Logue; mother Alice Hanby. An index only; the image has not been read.
