Bio Notes: Thomas Munro Logan was born in 1879 and was articled to John Bryce of D & J Bryce in Edinburgh in 1895. He remained there for five years as apprentice and a further two years as assistant, studying on the diploma course at the School of Applied Art under Frank Worthington Simon. On leaving Bryce in 1902 he moved to Dundee to work for James Findlay, who had succeeded to John Murray Robertson's practice, on domestic projects. After three years there he moved to London as assistant to James Glen Sivewright Gibson, returning to Scotland in 1906 to take up a position as architect and surveyor on the Marquis of Breadalbane's estates in Perthshire, perhaps in the hope of establishing a potential client base. He was still there when he was admitted LRIBA in the mass intake of 20 July 1911, his proposers being Gibson, Bryce and Hippolyte Jean Blanc. By 1914 he was in practice in Stirling with house and office at 14 Park Terrace.
