Life in the order the records give it

Birth1892
Born 28 November 1892 at Galveston, Texas, by her death certificate S1113. Her younger sister Mabel Logue Piland was also born at Galveston, in 1895 S907, so the family seems to have lived there between the 1890 Alabama marriage S908 and the 1900 Waco census S906
Residence1938
She had lived in Austin for 20 years, on Manor Road, and was a housewife. She died at Seton Infirmary, Austin, on 12 February 1938, aged 45, and was buried in Oakwood Cemetery, Austin, the next day S1113

Family parents, marriages, children, siblings

Marriage

🆕 Sister of Victor Quillen Logue, born 1902, whose marriage records name the same father, D. C. Logue S1191 S1192

Open questions what is probable, weak or missing — confirm or correct it

  1. 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].
  2. S907Texas death certificate index — Mabel Logue Piland, 13 April 1961, Austin. Ancestry record 23640738. Born 31 October 1895, Galveston; died 13 April 1961, Austin, Travis County; father D. C. Logue. Probable Read from the index only; the certificate image has not been examined. The Galveston birthplace sits against the 1900 Waco household (S906); the family may have moved. Second citation, added 1 October 2026: the Texas state death index for 1961, page 971, Ancestry record 5099606, image examined, reads “PILAND MABEL LOGUE | TRAVIS | APR 13 | 24560”, the same death and file number. It is still an index; the certificate itself, with her birthplace and parents, has not been seen.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
  7. S1192FamilySearch index, California, County Marriages, 1850–1953 — Victor Quillen Logue and Ethel P. Williams, 26 August 1933, Los Angeles. FamilySearch record K8J8-X5H, checked 1 October 2026.

Compiled for the Proeger family

Living adults appear by name and relationship, with the year only: no full date of birth and no home town on any page that search engines index, and a living person’s own page is kept out of search engines. Minors appear by name only — no date of birth, no birth year, no age, no school, no place, no address, no other identifying detail. A minor may be named and may appear in a family photograph; nothing further about them is published. Where it is not established whether someone is an adult or a minor, the minor rule applies.
