Edward Owen of Wilcoxon Harding and Owen was an ancestor of mine, he wrote his Will in 1824, Codicil in 1826 and died in 1835, buried at Bunhills Churchyard, London (near John Bunyans grave)
His address at the end of his life was 95 New bond Street, and later his nephew Robert Owen, East India warehouse owner was at that address.
I am descended from Edward Owen's brother Owen Owen of Bala, North Wales.

That`s interesting.

Arthur Wilcoxon snr is also buried at Bunhill Fields. Probably lots more of the family as well.

He was very wealthy when he died,  but it seems the sons didn`t run the business very well after his death.  ;)

Edward Owen left £50 to senior Arthur Wilcoxon as compensation for executing his Will, with a mourning ring, and he left a mourning ring each to Arthur Wilcoxon junior and Robert Wilcoxon, "of Camberwell."
