About that, Brian. I believe I mentioned Thomas and Mary Flewelling of Westfield Parish, Kings County, New Brunswick. Thomas was the s/o John and Deborah (Denton) Flewwelling, Loyalists in 1783 to the Kingston Peninsula. I believe that the following were their daughters:

MARTHA FLEWWELLING m. 21AUG1823 WILLIAM LOGAN (Kings County Marriage Register, Vol. 1: 1812-1844, entry 149, PANB microfilm F-75. Witnesses were Susan H. Wilmot and Sophia A. Wiggens. The minister was G. L. Wiggins.)

ANN (ANNA) FLEWWELLING m. 31DEC1824 CHARLES LOGAN (Kings County Marriage Register, Vol. 1: 1812-1844, entry 164, PANB microfilm F-75. Witnesses were Nehemiah Flewwelling and Robert Logan. Marriage performed by the Rev. G. L. Wiggins.)

MARY FLEWWELLING m. 10NOV1830 JOSEPH LOGAN (Kings County Marriage Register, Vol. 1: 1812-1844, entry 272, PANB microfilm F-75. Witnesses were Elizabeth Wiggins and Margaret Ch[asnut].) A Joseph and Nancy Logan had a son, John (b. 11JAN1836), bpt. at Oak Point 1NOV1836. A Joseph Logan (b. ca. 1811) with his wife, Mary (b. ca. 1816) lived in Westfield Parish during the 1851 census, and had sons: Robert Logan b. ca. 1842 and William Logan b. ca. 1847.
In, New Brunswick Vital Statistics From Newspapers: 1829-1831, (Vital Statistics Committee, New Brunswick Genealogical Society, Daniel F. Johnson, chair, Fredericton, NB 1984;) in entry # 1039 on p. 56, is an abstract from the 13 November, 1830 issue of, The New Brunswick Courier, which gives:

m. [Westfield] Kings Co. 10th by Rev. G. L. Wiggins <LOGAN-Joseph> to <FLEWELLING Mary> 3rd d/o <FLEWELLING Thomas> all of Westfield. NBRG GNS

The last two notations indicate that the notice appeared in the, New Brunswick Royal Gazetteer, and another newspaper. In the case of Mary’s presumed sisters, and the witness to one of those sister’s wedding, it is only assumed that Ann, Martha and Nehemiah are children of Thomas and Mary Flewelling. In this case, having only one Thomas Flewelling from Westfield Parish at the time, the relationship is stated. That Mary has at least two older sisters, and that the other weddings were also performed in Westfield Parish by the Rev. G. L. Wiggins, strongly supports the concept that all were siblings, and that the two elder sisters were Ann and Hannah.

Were, in fact, Charles, William and Joseph Logan brothers? I have never been able to confirm their parents.
