The biography David Owen (Owen-11915) of Montgomery Co., VA, says he has siblings, Laurence Owen and Eleanor Owen. No such children were named in the will of Walter Owen, father of David Owen (Owen-8499). The fact that David Owen (Owen-11915) names a son, Barnet, seems to indicate that this David Owen belongs with Walter Owen's family. It would be helpful to find deeds showing a move from Lunenburg Co., VA, to Montgomery Co., VA, which is about 160 miles away.
