Logan's past is largely unknown, mostly because many of his memories were altered and faked when he was part of the Weapon X program, the program in which he received the adamantium in the first place. The following is known about his early days:
Born over 100 years ago as James Howlett, he was the sickly son of a wealthy landowner, though it is possible that he was actually the result of an affair between his mother and an estate hand named Logan. James's life endured an abrupt change when Mr. Logan was thrown off the estate and came back to accost Mr. Howlett himself. Howlett was shot, and Logan attacked James, whose claws extruded for the first time, killing Logan and slashing his son Dog.
James was spirited away by Rose, the governess he had befriended, and taken to a mining operation in Alberta, where she gave him the name Logan. "Logan" grew stronger in the wilderness, and seemed to have blocked his memory of his last days with the Howletts. He stayed with the miners until Rose announced her intention to leave with her boyfriend Smitty, the foreman who had been a surrogate father to Logan. Upset and jealous, Logan did not stand in their way, but when Dog (operating on the elder Howlett's orders) tracked him down and attacked him, he was forced to remember his past and unsheathed his claws. Unfortunately, while he knocked Dog out, Rose was in the way and was impaled on his claws. Logan ran into the woods, and was not seen again for many years.
