Born in Lurgan, the young James Logan and his family moved to Bristol in 1689. 1699 he sailed to Pennsylvania as secretary to William Penn. His career included spells as Mayor of Philadelphia, Chief Justice, Acting Governor and President of the Council of Pennsylvania. The plaque is on a house almost opposite Malcolm Road. Note: this plaque existed long before the Ulster History Circle began erecting its blue plaques.
