Thank you for the enquiry of David Owen. My David, b. 1837, left
Swansea in 1866 and came to US settling in Boston, Mass. He is listed in
the local
census as an engineer, which doesn't tell us much as back then a janitor
in an
apartment building was listed as a stationary engineer if he attended to the
heating system. My grandfather, also David, b. 1862 in Swansea, was a wood
carver and worked in Boston on the making of pianos. I have no knowledge
of any
brothers or sisters related to the first David and am seeking any
information I
can get as to his parentage and any siblings. I honestly can't relate any of
your information to what little I know of the Owen family while it was still
in Wales. I wish I could be of more help to you.
