John B. I. Logan, was aged 67 years. He was the husband of Eliza and the son of Robert & Margaret Logan. He was an attorney. Per his death record.


At the Library of Virginia, I found the personal papers collection of John B. I. Logan, 1811-1877, Papers, 1816-1886.


"Papers, 1816-1886, of John B. I. Logan (1811-1877) of Salem, Virginia, consisting of letters, accounts and receipts, memorandum books, estate papers of Charles L. Barnett and David Shanks, obituaries of Roanoke County residents, tax receipts, legal papers, clippings, Confederate currency, and miscellaneous ephemera. Topics covered in the letters include family news, weather, travel, health, invitations, and legal and financial matters, as well as Logan's involvement in the Sons of Temperance and the Presbyterian church, including information on meetings, lectures, and group organization. The letters also touch on issues relating to the Civil War, including secession, fatalities, and national politics. Of particular note is a letter, dated 30 November 1859, written by Logan from Harpers Ferry, as well as a letter written by Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson, dated 23 February 1863, concerning the religious faith and spiritual interest of his troops."


There may be other engraving on the marker, below his death date. It's hard to maker out.
