He should not be confused with Jack Owen (1887–1957) who was also a British trade unionist.[1] Jack Owen (c.1890 – 22 October 1983) was a British trade unionist. Born in Scarborough, North Yorkshire, Owen worked as a blastfurnaceman in a foundry for twenty-five years. He joined the National Union of Blastfurnacemen, Ore Miners, Coke Workers and Kindred Trades (NUB), and began working full-time for the union in 1937.[2] In 1948, Owen was elected as general secretary of the NUB, and also to the General Council of the Trades Union Congress. He retired in 1953,[2] and wrote Ironmen, a history of the union.[3] Owen died at the age of 93 in 1983.[2] References1. ^Compendium of Communist Biography, Graham Stevenson, extracted 9 Nov 2016 {{s-start}}{{s-npo|union}}{{succession box|title=General Secretary of the National Union of Blastfurnacemen|years=1948 – 1953|before=Ambrose Callighan|after=Joseph O'Hagan}}{{succession box|title=Iron, Steel and Minor Metal Trades representative on the General Council of the TUC|years=1948 – 1953|before=Ambrose Callighan and Lincoln Evans|after=Harry Douglass and Joseph O'Hagan|with=Lincoln Evans}}{{s-end}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Owen, Jack}}2. ^1 2 Trades Union Congress, Report of the 1983 Annual Trades Union Congress, p.356 3. ^Jack Eaton and Colin Gill, Jack Eaton, Colin Gill, p.137 5 : 1890 births|1983 deaths|English trade unionists|Members of the General Council of the Trades Union Congress|People from Scarborough, North Yorkshire |
