Charles Lilburn Owen/C.L. Owen MO and TX
Charles Lilburn Owen (1829-1908)died in Gentry County, Missouri, and is fairly well documented.He appears in the 1870 census there with three children born in Texas, about 1863, 1864, and 1867.Charles was born in Tennessee.
One C. L. Owen appears in the tax lists of Tarrant County beginning in 1860 and continuing through 1868.He rgistered to vote in 1867, saying he was a native of Tennessee.He is absent from the 1870 census in Tarrant County, Texas.He only appears in Texas records as "C. L."
The Tarrant County census for 1860 is missing, so we have no way to see the names of C. L. Owens' family members.
Are we dealing with two different men here, or one man?
