William Edgar Wallace Owen (1863 - 1941 ), son of Lemuel Cambridge Owen and Lois Welsh, married Lillian Wilhemina Bostrom.
After selling the Keppoch farm ca 1922, WEW Owen and family moved into Charlottetown. I am not sure if then moved directly into the house at 158 Pownal St, or lived somewhere else for a while. The house was sold in the 1970s, torn down and with adjacent lots used to built a motel.Died 26 Apr 1941 [1] Buried 29 Apr 1941 Sherwood Cemetery, Charlottetown, , Prince Edward Island, Canada [1] - William E.W.
