About Charles W Owens:
C.W Owens and Alice Rachel Waldon marriage license September 22, 1883 in , Travis Co, Tx married October
7, 1883 by WF Baxter.
In 1900 the family was living in Manor, Travis Co. Tx Charlie was a farm
laborer and they rented their home. Between 1900 and 1910, the family moved to Lampassas Co, Tx where
Charlie still farmed and they rented their home. By 1920 Charlie and Alice lived in 501 N. 9th St. in
Elgin , Bastrop Co, Tx They now owned their home and rented a part of it out. About 1927 they moved
to Austin where Charlie set up a little store in their home for Alice to run. She could not read or
write but taught herself to keep her own books for the store. It was a little neighborhood grocery store
and it did good business. Charlie drove a hack with a horse and peddled vegetables. The Austin City
Directory of 1929 lists Charlie's occupation as a "huckster" (peddler or salesman). They lived at 1912
E Second St. In the Directories of 1930-35, they lived at 808 Clermont Ave. and Charlie was still a
peddler. When Charlie died, great-grandson Jack Saunderson remembers watching the family make a pine
coffin for him. He had requested that he have a homemade pine box, painted white on the inside and black
on the outside. His grandson Woodrow Caffey, who was a carpenter, built it for him. Charlie also requested
that he not be carried to the cemetery in a hearse but that they use a truck instead.
