This is being written in regards to your earlier posting regarding the Toomey Family.I'm trying to find a connection between the Toomey (Twomey) family near Gallatin, IL and Andrew Logan.I don't know if the connection is the same Toomey family that you are asking about but at least the area in question is the same.Andrew would be my husband's gg grandfather.I don't know if what data I have is accurate, but I've been told there is a good possibility that Andrew Logan is buried in a family cemetery called Twomey Woods in Gallatin but I don't think his grave is marked.Andrew's wife's name was Mariah Jane or J. & it has been related that she is also buried there.Do you know anything about this or do you know where I might find out?I know that Andrew Logan came to the US from Scotland with another member of his family--a brother or cousin--and was a stowaway so assume there wouldn't be any record of his arrival.I'm sorry I don't have any other pieces of information.Thank you for any light you can shed on this.
