Honora was said to be a beautiful and vivacious Irish girl who was kidnapped in Ireland and brought to Maryland by a sea captain for barter. She was bought by Willian Logsdon and later became his wife. Most kidnaped girls were traded for tobacco. Honora was a pious Catholic and it was through her that the family got its Catholic roots.

Selected by William on board ship in Patabsco River in 1702. Bought her for a hogshead of tobacco.
