Biography
6 June 1841 – Census, @ St Ann's Place, Walcot, Bath, Somerset – a guest/lodger in a household that included his fiance, Jane Small and was headed by his future mother-in-law, Sarah Small.
30 March 1851 – Census, @ Newington Terrace (now St Agnes Place), Oval, Kennington, Surrey. Occupation: "Shawl Printer".
7 April 1861 – Census, @ St George the Martyr, Southwark, Surrey. Occupation: "Secretary to a Public Company".
1864 – Member, Royal Society of Arts (Not to be confused with the better known Royal Society; the RSA was more concerned with technological innovation.)
2 April 1871 – Census, @ Brixton, Lambeth, Surrey. Occupation: "Civil Engineer".
3 April 1881 – Census, @ 4 Lancroft Terrace, Lancroft Rd, Camberwell, Surrey. Occupation: "Civil Engineer".
No evidence that Owen used a second given name. (See e.g. probate; trees that claim a second name of "Thomas" appear to be confusing him with his son, Owen Thomas Bowen, 1858–1940.)
(Not the Owen Bowen who died in 1895 @ Lambeth, who was 15 years younger and relatives names' do not match.)
