Josiah and Amelia Owen/Owens of Axemann, PA
Any clarification or information on the following would be greatly appreciated!
JOSIAH OWEN from Blaenavon Wales emigrated to the USA in 1869. He settled with his wife AMELIA in Irish Hollow, PA, then moved to Axemann PA. They had 10 children. One of their sons was WILLIAM MORGAN OWENS, who married CORA ROAN. They also had ten children. Some of their children were: ROSE IRENE 12/7/1890-4/19/1978, CORA ETTA 1/11/1893-11/1/1927, MINNIE HOMER 1/2/1895-5/19/1911, and JEREMIAH BUTTS OWENS 10/15/1896-8/1/1970. Before continuing, please note that JOSIAH had another wife. Her name was HANNAH PUGH and they had 2 children together. I do not know if HANNAH was before or after AMELIA, but I think she was before.
