Hi Mike,   

Hope that you are keeping well over there in Norfolk.    I think the Owen family lived at No 24  Cwm Place but it's so long since I lived in the street that I can't be certain.  I do remember the family apart from David but did Lily ever marry because I can only ever remember calling her Miss Owen  when I used to speak to her.
Did the family move from Cwm Place to the estate, possibly Ffordd Morfa as I've a very vague memory that they left Cwm Place at some time

Thanks Micox - probably my late mother in law, Amy Ferguson nee Owen,  would have known them. She lived in Mowbray Road from 1926 until she passed away last year.

When I see a Llandudno Owen I tend to think they are related to her family.

I see from Hugo's post that you are over in Norfolk - my father's family were Norwich people.

No one reads these however Lily Owen was my mums best friend at one time and we lived next door in Ffordd Morfa, Ernie was a coalman and a real nice guy, Billy was ok too and I grew up with Beverly a real nice girl who became a hairdresser. They moved to the houses behind the Links Hotel.
welsh and proud even though far away.

The Owens lived in Cwm Place when I lived there and were a nice family, sometimes Ernie used to join in the football matches when we played on Cwm Place field.
I seem to remember an older member of the Owen family living there but can't remember his name but I'm thinking that he may have been called George and he was a nice guy too.   I can't recall Beverley in Cwm Place though
Ernie and another guy kept pigs and the Pigsty was at the very top of Bodnant Road

Thanks Steve and Hugo.
we moved to Ffordd Morfa in around 1968/9 . and always remember aunt Lil (not real aunt as we know). I would remember that face anywhere a kind and cool woman. Yea Remember Owens in Cwm Place the old guy with The coach tours which mum and dad went with Lil and Ernie. I could write a book on Ffordd Morfa btw. Lil used to work at a Dry cleaners which used to be at the end of Mostyn Street i guess where the amusements is now. Forgive me I moved away in 88 and a lot of things have changed. I remember that Bodnant Rd farm too. Beverly yes She worked at the hairdressers next to the palladium where I used to be her test dummy on hair colour. Anyway they moved out and the Lewis Family moved in at Ffordd Morfa. Peggy and Chris Lewis a nice family. The other Lady Cox I think worked with My dad at Hi Hat. Respect Guys.
