However, there is a family in Long Bennington, with the same name. That’s Bill Owen’s family and people used to comment all the time about how similar he and my dad were.
Being way too nosy for my own good, I read the above having seen your recent FB post. Thought I'd look at it seeing as I don't have to go to work until this afternoon. I can't make his line go back to the right county There are quite a few trees on Ancestry that also don't go back to Lincs, but also all have a cracking mistake in the 1840/1850s with a ten-year-old boy getting married.

Was the LB connection a long way before 1837?

Cup of tea and then I'll be gone, so I won't be doing any more prodding!

EDIT - I've just realised, maybe you meant there is a different line coming forward that lived at LB? Anyway, I can't get the line I looked at to reach back to Lincolnshire.
