Hello Vernon in CT, You wrote about searching for any other members of the Owens family. Most of my research is on Owen Owens (1746) and his family. I found two William Owens, but I don't have data on either one. Sorry, I do not have any info on Elizabeth Baker or Rosetta Funkhauser. If you are interested in Owen Owens, he came to Augusta County, VA then to Fincastle in 1772. The family tradition as told about 1913 stated that Owen Owens was born in North Wales. He was a minister and educated for the period of time in which he lived. He served as an aide and mail carrier for General Marion in the American Revolution. He lived in Georgia, Tennessee, Kentucky and settled in Indiana in 1830. He died in the northern part of the state in 1809, and he was buried in the Breckenridge Cemetery near Bedford, Indiana. Owen Owens met an Irish girl on board the ship on which he came to America and later married her after a season of apprenticeship to pay for the passage. John Fleece Owens said his grandfather, Owen Owens, came from Wales and his grandmother, Sophia Wade was born in Ireland. They worked their way over from the old country and settled in Tennessee. A check of the Washington County records gave a reference to Owen Owens as a minister of the gospel of the Baptist Church. Good Luck to you on your search, Mary Ann Wade

> Hello List, I am looking for more info on a Nancy/Nanny Veale born in Davies Co married to Jesse Peek and they lived in Martin Co as well. My family info states that Nancy was born in Feb 1828 and married in 1853 to Jesse and had 5 children before she died in 1866. There seems to be another Nancy R. Veale b. 1798 in SC who is also being said to have married Jesse after her first husband, Mr. Lett, died but she was in her 60's and it's hard to believe she had any children with Jesse. I have obits on two of their daughters which say that their mother's name is Nancy Veale/Veal but don't mention anything about a first husband or children. Does anyone have any info and documentation like the 1860 census on this family? Thank you for any help.
