Lord Dunmore's War
Logan served in the Virginia militia during Henry Bouquet's 1764 campaign against the Shawnee Indians. Ten years later, he served as a lieutenant in Lord Dunmore's War against the same Indian nation. In 1776, Logan moved to Kentucky, then the westernmost portion of Virginia. He built a stockade known as Logan's Fort which eventually would grow into the town of St. Asaph's near Stanford.
