Born in the Scotland Road area of Liverpool, Logan was the son of Thomas Logan, a ship's cook, and Catherine (McHugh) Logan.^[1]

He was Member of Parliament (MP) for Liverpool, Scotland from 1929 until his death in 1964, aged 92, becoming the oldest MP since Samuel Young in 1918.^[2] Logan was later surpassed by S. O.
