Captain Patrick Logan (1791 - October 1830) is best known as commandant of Moreton Bay penal colony from 1826 until his death by murder in 1830. The identity of his killer was never discovered, although some postulate it was vengeful Aboriginal Australians who protested at his stern and unyielding manner.

Born in East Renton , Berwickshire, Scotland, he was the youngest son of a Scottish landowner and farmer, Abraham Logan.
