In 1850, Charlotte OWEN age 59 is living in Davie County, with Samuel and Frances (Owen) REAVIS and Thomas OWEN age 26. Next to them are John OWEN age 43 and Laura age 23, who would appear to be John's second wife. Frances, John, Thomas, and John's older children (presumably from his first marriage) are listed as having been born in Davidson County. My guess is that Charlotte is the mother of these three, plus Joel Owen who married Mary REAVIS in 1848 and was also born in Davidson County. Can anyone identify Charlotte's husband for me, and confirm that she is the mother of these people?
