I am searching for a family of Owens who I thought were born in Llandisiliogogo. The children I have found are David 1859, Owen 1859,John 1861,Catherine 1864,Ellen 1866,Thomas 1867,Evan 1869,Jane 1870,Margaret 1873,Daniel 1875 and Elizabeth 1877. The parents were Thomas 1831 and Sarah 1833. The story that has been handed down is that there were five sons who all went to sea.
I have come across five brothers from Llangrannog, David 1859,Owen 1859,Evan 1869,John 1861 and Daniel 1873 who all seemed to be prominent in the shipping world. Companies formed by these brothers were County Shipping Co.,Bont Shipping Co. and Anglo Belgique Shipping Co.
Due to the similarity of names and birthdates I am sure these must be the same family but have been unable to confirm it.
Does anyone have any information on these five that would shed light on it. Were they the sons of a Thomas?
Is Llangrannog close to Llandisiliogogo?
Can anyone get me farther back than Thomas?
This is a dreadful name to research and any help would be more than appreciated! Many thanks in advance.
