~
Charles Owen, son of Benjamin Franklin Owen, married Ella Martha Bess on December 13, 1903. The couple were married at the bride's home in Danvers, with Jesse and Myrtle, a brother and a sister of the bride, as their witnesses. At the time of their marriage, Charles was working as a farmer in Danvers. Charles worked at a variety of jobs, including Township Road Commissioner in the 1930's. He worked for a time as a 'machine man' for the J. C. Case Company and hired out as a thresher on many of the nearby farms. One of his sons remembers that he found it difficult to insist on payment for the threshing and the family was often short of money.
Charles and Ella had six children. Unlike many families in those early years of the 1900's, no babies were lost and all of their children lived into old age. Charles died in 1948, at age 78. His wife, Ella, died in 1970 at age 89.
Their children were: Inez Leona, Myra Imogene, Charles Russell, Ralph Theodore, and the twins, Ray and Fay Evaline.
