Mr. Owen was born at Castalia, Iowa, in 1869, and was married November 24, 1898. He and his wife settled in Clear Lake in 1908, where the resided until 1913, when they moved to California, where they resided for 15 years.
In 1928 Mr. and Mrs. Owen moved to Osage and resided here until December 31, 1935, when they moved to Clear Lake to be near relatives, as both were in poor health.

Their son, Lynn, an airplane pilot, was killed in California several years ago in a crash at the Long Beach Airport. He was up with a student when a fog gathered. The crash resulted from the attempted landing.
Funeral services for Mr. Owen were held Friday afternoon at the residence, with Dr. W. B. Riner officiating, and burial was made in Clear Lake Cemetery.
