Owens is an unincorporated community in Marion County, in the U.S. state of Ohio.[1]
The community was named for John Owens, a businessperson in the mining industry.[2] Owens developed around Owens Quarry, a limestone quarry and crusher plant near Marion, Ohio, in southeastern Marion County. In addition to employee housing there was an opera house, U.S. post office, general store, and train station.[3] Now owned by Dennis Mattix, the opera house has been restored.[4] It is located at 1674 Owens Road.[5]
