Judy, Just responding to the surname OWEN in your Greene County, MO, messages. I have a MARY MELINDA OWEN (parents unknown) who married JOHN HENRY SMITH in 1859. MARY MELINDA OWEN was born 1849 & died in 1898 in Fair Grove, Greene County, MO. Their children were Edward, Lelia Jane, Demetria Owen, William N., George, Kleber, Corinner Esprin, and Laura MeEtta. Does any of this sound familiar with your OWEN line? Thanks for responding either way!
