Arthur C Owens

Owen’s third child was Arthur C Owens. He is listed as Arthur D in the 1880 census, but other census years and the World War I Draft registration show him as Arthur C. Arthur was born September 15, 1875. There is an Arthur C Owens in the 1910 census in San Francisco that may be this Arthur. He was a salesman for Wholesale Cigars. And he was widowed. He was not living with his parents, and I couldn’t find any other Arthur C Owens that seemed to fit. The 1930 census shows that Arthur was first married at age 31, about 1906. His wife at that time, Grace, was first married at age 30, about 1914, so it appears that Arthur had been married prior to his marriage to Grace, and tends to verify that the 1910 census assumption is correct. I was not able to locate them in the 1920 census, and I have not found any evidence that they had any children. He lived for a while in San Francisco, and during the 1930’s and 1940’s he lived in Alameda County, Calfornia. He died there on September 9, 1956.
