I just recently got the apprenticeships book and another Various records book for Grainger and noticed on the 1848 School list a C.J. Owens with 3 school age children in the 15th Dist. which means they were bet 6-21, C.J. Owens was also a Comrs. for the school dist. (Commissoner?) just thought I'd let you know he was still there in 1848.. for what its worth....Sharon ......................................................................... ..........................................
