From the documentation with his military service file, initial reports had been that he was missing from base which was ultimately upgraded to a report of missing and presumed dead. However, on form H.Q. 1772-39-893, found within said file, there is an entry of a burial report on 19 January 1920 and a notation that William John had been killed in action.

Hi Susan,
I have no relationship to the Owlett family. My interest comes from researching the 50 names from WWI on my local cenotaph over many years. Thanks to the internet and the willingness of many people to share / exchange their research, I have been able to make great progress in the last 2 years and learn a great deal about the CEF. And I find it very gratifying to be able to help someone else with their own research.
Pte. William John Owlett had, until recently, been one of the enigmas on my list..... I had very little on him. I was baffled as to why his name was on the cenotaph because I had such a difficult time finding anything to link him to my area. I was beginning to wonder if it was a misspelling or variation of a common French name, Ouelette. Finally I found a mention of him in our local newspaper from July 1919 which indicated he stayed at the home of a well known local family when he was here. As a locomotive fireman he probably would have travelled extensively. It also mentioned that he was with the T. & N.O., which is the Temiskaming & Northern Ontario railway, which finally linked him to New Liskeard in some way.
Last year I acquired his CEF personnel file, and recently I began looking on Ancestry.ca to see what I could find. It was a pleasant surprise that things seemed to quickly fall into place. The Will (a form) in his CEF file named a brother Albert Arthur Owlett of Maleval, SK and a sister Mrs. Annie Miller (wife of Albert W. Miller) of Beachburg, ON.
I was able to find Albert Arthur Owlett in the 1901 and 1906 Census, which both have him in Manitoba. I have also found that he received a Western Land Grant in Saskatchewan.
Albert along with William appear on a passenger list of the Sardinian which arrived at port in Quebec City, Quebec 9 Jul 1894. On this list is written "Dr. Barnardo's party", which leads me to believe they were either orphaned or came from a family that was destitute. William appears in the 1901 census as a "domestic" with the family of James & Lavina Brodie in Whitchurch, ON.
Annie appears in the 1901 census as the daughter of John J. & Annie E. James of Bridgeburg, ON. In the 1911 census she is a boarder at the Hawn household of Bertie Township, Welland County, ON. She marries Albert W. Miller on 12 Sep 1911 in Bridgeburg, Welland County, ON. Her record of marriage shows John J. James and Annie E. Hawn as her adopted parents, and it seems logical to conclude that the Hawn household she is living at in 1911 is a relation to her adopted mother. Annie appears with Emily on the passenger list of the Sardinian which arrived at port, either Quebec City or Montreal, 22 Oct 1892. The girls are also part of a Dr. Barnardo party, but they came over almost 2 years earlier than their brothers. Again, it was an assumption that they were sisters given that the name Owlett seems to be uncommon. Sadly, Emily dies 1 Sep 1897 in Emily Township, Victoria County, ON. Her record of death indicates she was born in Kent, ENG.
At that point, I believed that I had only the parents and one other sister to identify to complete the immediate family of Pte. Owlett. I wasn't sure that I would ever be able to determine the parents or their fate. All that I had on the remaining sister was a card from William's CEF file which named a Mrs. Fowler of 72 West St., Faversham, Kent as a sister. As luck would have it, a fellow researcher pointed me in the direction of your site and those missing pieces were filled in!
You can find a copy of Pte. Owlett's CEF file here ..... it's approx. 55MB in size (28 pages).
The various images, etc. regarding the Owlett family I have gathered can be found here
One other thing of interest that I made a note of: Pte. Owlett was listed as missing, presumed dead which indicates his body was not recovered at or near the time of his death. However, his body must have been one of those recovered and somehow identified after the war as he is listed as being buried in Loos British Cemetery, Pas de Calais, France here
Based on what has been found so far, it would seem that the only possible living descendants in Canada from the Owlett family would come from Annie and Albert Miller. William and Emily both died fairly young, and so far there is no record that Albert ever married.
Of course, I would be very interested in anything you might discover about William J. Owlett, and if you happen to know the cause of death of his parents. I am also generally interested in the immediate family (marriages, dates and cause of death, etc.) as they sometimes lead to interesting details that may never have been found otherwise. Sometimes following up and reading the obituary of a brother or sister who lived to be 80+ or 90+ years old turns up additional information on the soldier / family. I generally don't look into the next generation (ie: children of a soldiers' brothers and sisters), but I have noted that very often one of these children are named in honour of the fallen soldier. Ideally my co-researcher and I would like to be able to provide at least some basic background information on every man on our list so that they can be portrayed as something more than just another faceless name and number.
I hope this information if of use to you. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions (or problems accessing the files).

Greetings,
I am researching William John Owlett who enlisted with the Canadian Expeditionary Force and was killed 21 Aug 1917. I just discovered his family as part of your family tree at the website mentioned in the subject line. It helps fill in some of the gaps I had, particularly in regards to his parents. If you are interested, I have images of a number of forms / documents in regards to William John Owlett (including his CEF personnel file), Albert Arthur Owlett, and Emily Owlett (who died in Canada 1897). As well, I have some for another sister, Annie E. Owlett who does not appear on your site. The 4 Owlett children who came to Canada appear to be some of the many Barnardo children.

Description
English: Mural monument to Tobie Newcourt (d.1612) of Pickwell in the parish of Georgeham, Devon. Pickwell Chapel of St George's Church, Georgeham. John Newcourt bought the manors of Georgeham and Pickwell in 1560. The oldest inscribed tomb in the churchyard is that of John Newcourt who died in 1602.
The monument is dedicated to his son Tobie Newcourt. The sculpture shows busts of six persons, two per row. It is thought to represent Tobie, his son John Newcourt and John's four sons John, William, Tobias and another John. The two female heads represent the wives of Tobie and his son. The inscription is now nearly illegible but was recorded many years ago as follows:
"To the pios memorie of Tobie Newcourt of Pickwell in this parish Esqr who married Mary third daughter of Arthur Harris of Heane Esqr by whom he had one son John and three daughters Elizabeth, Jane and Margaret. John (whose effigies is here presented) was buried the 6 June 1645 he married Mary the daughter of William Fry of Yeartie Esqr, by whom he had four sonnes John, Tobie, William and John.

About Kenegie Manor – a grand manor house in Cornwall
A grand and elegant building, Kenegie Manor house in Cornwall is steeped in history. Built over 500 years ago, our Cornish manor estate enjoys a prime location near Penzance. It has prospered over the centuries through the different families’ ownership.
It was first owned by the Tripconey family, who were at the helm until they became embroiled in the Cornish rebellion – with the house eventually being confiscated by the Crown. Kenegie Manor then passed into the hands of the Harris family who, under Elizabeth I, flourished. The house was expanded and the family were appointed Lieutentants of Cornwall by Sir Walter Raleigh and were given responsibility for defending St Michael’s Mount. However, Harris was later convicted for Royalist activities by Oliver Cromwell’s Parliamentary forces. The last male member of the Harris family died in 1775 and the estate transferred to William Arundell, who later changed his name to Harris.
In 1884 William Arundrell’s grandson sold Kenegie Manor to a London surgeon, who restored the property. But, due to his failing health in 1886 Kenegie then passed into the hands of the Bolitho family – who had made their fortune in Cornwall’s tin and copper mining heyday.
The family who visited the hills above Gulval in Tudor times and decided to build a mansion there must have been inspired – by the views over Mount’s Bay towards St Michael’s Mount, by the fields and countryside surrounding the estate and by the feelings of peace and calm which Kenegie Manor exudes.
kenegie Manor manor houseA grand manor house in Cornwall
Not content with a mansion they clearly needed a summerhouse, built over 500 years ago to capitalise on the sea views. Still boasting Tudor features this summer house now claims the centre of the park, evoking the same atmosphere of mystery the original owners must have experienced.
In later years when the Harris family assumed their duties as guardians of the Mount what better place could they have found than Kenegie from which to fulfil their brief. Their hilltop retreat afforded them views over the bay giving them advanced warning of invading ships and pirate activity.
Whilst little has been written about the history of Kenegie local folklore tells it played its part in pivotal moments in Cornwall’s past life. Maintaining this heritage is of key importance to us here at Kenegie. Once again Kenegie is in the hands of a family which appreciates its location, its atmosphere and its place in history.
With the help of local friends of Kenegie we are now embarking on extensive research to uncover fully the history of this remarkable Estate in Cornwall so that visitors may fully appreciate not only the present day at Kenegie but also its undeniable historical significance. | HARRIS, Arthur Esq.

As a reward for his service, Sir Ralph Sadleir was created Knight Banneret at the battle of Muscleborough, near Edinburgh, Scotland becoming the last of that order created for service performed against a common enemy.
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
From Wikipedia
The Right Honourable Sir Ralph Sadler, PC, Knight banneret, (1507 – 30 March 1587) was an English statesman of the 16th century, and served as a Secretary of State for King Henry VIII.
Life:
Sadler was born in Hackney, Middlesex, the elder son of Henry Sadler. The second son, John Sadler, was the ancestor of Hamnet Sadler, the friend after whom William Shakespeare named his only son, Hamnet, and may also have been influenced to name his play Hamlet.
At a young age, Ralph Sadler was taken into the household of Thomas Cromwell. Around 1536, he was made a gentleman of the King's privy chamber, and was soon sent to Scotland to investigate complaints made by Margaret Tudor (the King's sister) against her third husband, Henry Stewart, 1st Lord Methven, and to improve Anglo-Scottish relations. He succeeded in both respects.
The King was pleased with Sadler's work, and sent him again to Scotland, this time to discourage the King of Scotland, (James V), from accepting Cardinal Beaton's proposed Franco-Scottish alliance. Sadler failed in that respect, but the King was nonetheless impressed with his work. In 1540, he became one of the Two Secretaries of State, was knighted, made a privy councillor, and began sitting in Parliament as member for Hertford.
After the Battle of Solway Moss, Sadler was sent to Scotland again, this time to arrange a marriage between the infant Mary, Queen of Scots and Edward, Prince of Wales; he was again successful. All of his work in solidifying Anglo-Scottish relations, however, was for naught because war broke out in 1543.
He accompanied the Earl of Hertford on his campaign as treasurer of the army, then filled that position again in 1545. Sadler had been replaced by William Paget as Secretary of State, owing to his frequent absences on diplomatic missions, but was appointed Master of the Great Wardrobe. When Henry VIII died in 1547, he had already appointed Sadler onto the council of regency that would rule England during Edward VI's minority.
Sadler again accompanied Lord Hertford, this time at the Battle of Pinkie Cleugh as High Treasurer of the Army. In recognition of his services during the fighting, Sadler was made a knight banneret (baronet), a position "above a knight and next to a baron. Sadler was present when Stephen Gardiner, Bishop of Winchester, was arrested, and he also accompanied the force that put down Robert Kett's Norfolk Rebellion. He was one of the signatories of Edward's Will, but remained in retirement during Queen Mary's reign.
During Elizabeth's reign, however, Sadler became one of Lord Burghley's most trusted advisors. He was sent to Scotland to arrange an alliance with the Scottish Protestants; when fighting broke out at the Battle of Leith, he was one of the architects of the Treaty of Leith. In 1568 he was appointed Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, and when Mary, Queen of Scots fled to England, Sadler was unwillingly appointed to meet with the Scottish commissioners regarding that problem. He was sent to arrest the Duke of Norfolk during the Rising of the Northern Earls, and was unwillingly appointed gaoler of Mary, Queen of Scots. After the Babington Plot, Sadler was also on the council that sentenced Mary to death. Sadler died in 1587 at Standon, Hertfordshire.
Works:
Sadler is one of the few Renaissance statesmen for whom we have extant Parliamentary orations, including a speech on succession in 1563 and one on subsidy in 1566. Copies of these orations appear in a three volume 19th c. publication, which includes a biography by Walter Scott.

As his father and grandfather, Thomas Stone Nutt was employed in the marine trades. He was a dredger and married twice: first, to Ellen Lilly during 1819 and second, to a widow named Hannah Lewin (nee Miles) in 1841. Thomas never appears on a census for the Faversham triangle. I, therefore, suspect that he lived at Sheerness, Whitstable, Luddenham or even Canterbury. It is unknown whether he had any children. | NUTT, Thomas Stone (I3164)

As of 5 Dec 2014, Tyler extracts found on Ancestry.com have confirmed that he, too, has transcribed the baptism of Catherine to parents James and Lucy of Faversham on 7 Dec 1800 as being surnamed AUSTEN. I have suspected for some time that the HORSTIN surname attached to the baptism in the parish register was some awful dialectual rendering of the surname AUSTEN. Although Tyler does not provide his source he was abstracting various AUSTEN events. This baptism abstract is followed immediately by the marriage of Thomas Jones to Lucy Austen in 1807.

As of the 1851 census John and his small family were living on Water Lane and he worked as a mariner. In their short time together, John having died 5 years and 5 months after his marriage, they had had four children. The last of John's children, Elizabeth, was born 3 months after her father's death in 1854. Neither of John's two sons survived - John having died during 1853 and Charles during 1854.
By 1861 Susan had remarried a man by the name of George Fright, a publican at the Royal Standard on Court Street. Jane and Elizabeth were still living with their mother. This family left Faversham by 1871 but not before Jane had also died at age 17 during April, May or June of 1867. George Fright had been born at Whitstable and it may be that the family returned to that town. | GREGORY, John (I2240)

At some time between 1738 and 1743 the family moved from St. Martin, Canterbury to Ospringe.
At Canterbury St Mary Northgate
there is a marriage:
May 27th 1750 Richard Gregory of St. Martin's to Sarah Rainbow of this parish by banns
could this Richard be a widower and the former husband of Dorathe Prebble?
Could explain why there is no burial for Richard in the Faversham vicinity
Possible parents:
John Gregory married Mary Fox 22 Oct 1699 at Chilham
OR
GREGORY AKA FIN, Richard, chr 11 Mar 1713 by Elizabeth Fin, spurious by Richard Gregory, deceased Chilham AD

At the time of the 1851 census, when George (III) was eighteen, his occupation was stated as being a draper. He became a minister, identified in the 1881 census when he was aged 48, with his occupation being stated summarily as E(vangelist), St Mary (an ancient Anglican church in Warwick). At that time he and his family lived at High Street, Wootton Wawen, Warwick.
In the 1901 census, George (now aged 68) and his family, were living at Bletchingly, Surrey. In 1901 George’s household included his wife Emma, now aged 70, identified as a “plasterer” (perhaps she moulded plaster figures for a religious purpose), Alice Epps aged 45, identified as a “sick nurse” and Emma Epps, aged 36, identified as a “daily governess”. Both Alice and young Emma appear to be unmarried. Alice, like Emma senior, was born (according to the census data) in Kidderminster, Worcestershire, and young Emma was born in Winterbourne, Gloucestershire, as was son George. It is possible that George and Emma had just the two children - “young” George and “young” Emma. As Alice was born in the same location as her mother, and around a decade before the young George and Emma, she may have been the daughter of an earlier relationship, but took the Epps name upon her mother’s subsequent marriage to George. This presumption is strengthened by two pieces of information: a marriage entry for a George Epps in the June quarter of 1861 at Stroud, Gloucestershire, to an Emma Winkle and a birth entry for an Alice Winkle in the June quarter of 1857 in Staffordshire (next door to Worcestershire). All these areas - Kidderminster, Winterbourne, Stroud and Staffordshire are relatively close by.

At the time of the 1881 census, Marie was staying with her aunt Rebecca Freeman (nee Gregory) in Rolvenden. In that her own mother had just had a newborn baby during March of 1881, it may be that it was necessary for her family to relieve some of the burden of all her children and had offered to take Marie. Marie was the second oldest child and the logical choice to send away for a short holiday. Her oldest sister was probably required to help look after her younger siblings: George 7, Alice 6, Fred 4 and Kathleen 2. | GUTTERIDGE, Marie P. (I2476)
