William Owens was born about 1857, in Wright County, MO, the son of
Elisha and Amanda (Binkley) Owens.
William married Amanda Scrivner in Wright County, they are listed in
1880, Wright County, Wood Township.
We don't know when William and Amanda left Wright County, they are
not listed there in 1900. In 1910, William and Amanda are listed
in Ottawa County, OK; according to this census, "Amanda has given
birth to 12 children, only 5 are living". Children listed in 1910
census are: Logan E. age 17, b. MO; Luke E. age 15, b. MO;
and Oly W. age 12, b. MO.
Another researcher has these children for Will and Amanda: Charlie, Henry, William, Luke, Albert, Sarah, Elza, Matilda, Elisha, Jonathan, Joawa, and Eli.
The 1920 census of Ottawa County lists William and Amanda, son Luke A., and William Z. Fugate age 10, and Iva G. Fugate, age 8, these are Grandchildren, children of Matilda Owens and her first husband, Bert Fugate. I know that Charles Owens died March 29, 1966 in Grove, OK. He was a drilling contractor. Amanda Owens died December 25, 1948 at the home of her daughter, Matilda Bouse in Miami, OK. I need William's date of death, and place of burial
I need any additional information on this family and would like to contact
any descendants.
