Biography

Owen C was born on 4 Dec., 1782^[1], possibly in PA, see 1850 and 1860 census below. However, his father was in Rockingham, VA in 1782 earlier in the year. That being said, I think he was really born in VA. He was the son of Jacob Bear and Barbara Rankin. Owen married Catherine Pierce about 1807 possibly in Augusta Co., Virginia. He was a farmer^[2]. Sometime between 1830 and 1850 Owen and his growing family moved from Clark Co., IN, where they had lived from sometime before 1820, to Jefferson Co., IL by 1850^[3].

He passed away on 5 June, 1865^[4]. He is buried in Mount Catherine Christian Cemetery, Woodlawn, Jefferson Co., IL with his wife Catherine^[5].
