Owen, Chas H. a resident of Volney for half a century, was born in Onondaga, Onondaga county, April 28, 1827.
He is a son of Daniel H. and Priscilla J. Owen, who removed from Onondaga to Hastings in 1835. Charles was engaged
in the transportation of grain by canal from Oswego to New York until 1861, when he joined the army and served

H. Curtis of Fulton, who was well known as a boot and shoe dealer in Hannibal and Fulton. They had one daughter,
Idaletta, who was born in 1856 and died in 1858. They have by adoption one daughter, Mary Lois. Charles has always
