This is the definitive work on Americans taken prisoner during the Revolutionary War. The bulk of the book is devoted to personal accounts, many of them moving, of the conditions endured by U.S. prisoners at the hands of the British, as preserved in journals or diaries kept by physicians, ships' captains, and the prisoners themselves. Of greater genealogical interest is the alphabetical list of 8,000 men who were imprisoned on the British vessel The Old Jersey, which the author copied from the papers of the British War Department and incorporated in the appendix to the work. Also included is a Muster Roll of Captain Abraham Shepherd's Company of Virginia Riflemen and a section on soldiers of the Pennsylvania Flying Camp who perished in prison, 1776-1777.

This book is a substantive record of the ancestry of the Owens families of the northern neck of Virginia, from A.D. 1960 to approximately 1178 B.C. The first chapter is specific to my family tree, starting with my grandfather, Eustace Conway Owens, then following his lineage back to Brutus Silvius, the founder and first King of Britain. However, if your last name is Owens or you have an Owens, Owain, Owen, Jones, Via, Flory, Diehl, Powell, Lewis, Tanner, Tudor, Ludlow, Morris, Merrick, Meyrick, Davis, Howell, Pettit, or Massey in your family tree, our bloodlines may cross somewhere in this history.Each chapter is representative of a generation starting with generation one or Chapter One, Eustace Conway Owens. Some Chapters include copies of documents, pedigrees, in-laws, pictures, photographs or maps. Follow the Owens family through the ages from Brutus, the first King of Britain (1178 B.C.) to the small town of Owens, Virginia (A.D. 1960).
