Note: REFN2 !His cause of death was OCLUSIVE CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE with CARCINO MA OF THE LUNG contributing.Death Ctf #56-71--300082.WILLIAM MC KINLE Y was the 25th president when he was born. Dad worked for Knox Hats, first in the factory then in sales. At some point he was transferred to Connecticut and I suppose that's wh y he left. He was on the young side for WW I but went to work in the Brooklyn Na vy Yard as a Boilermaker's Helper. He was slight in build and his size was su pposed to be an advantage working inside the ships boilers. He did th e same thing again in WW II. One of the times, the FBI gave him a har d time because the name he went by ,Joseph August Logan, didn't matc h his birth ctf which had been filled out (so the story went) by a Ge rman midwife. It said "Agust Logen".My mother arranged to have it cha nged legally when she was working in the City Court which had jurisdi ction. His SS# 092-01-2697 He had a cousin(?) named John Crehan,who may have worked with him i n the Navy Yard in the first war and later became a cop. He also ha d a liquor store maybe after he retired.One of my father's many job s was for the New York Daily News.I don't know what he did but I thin k it was in the printing plant. At some point the Logans lived at 93 Concord St probably at the poin t when my father was getting married. The County Clerk found no census record o f the family at 693 Franklin Ave in 1905 nor at 93 Concord St in 1915 . They were living at those addresses around that time.
