==Early life==
The youngest son of social reformer Robert Owen, Richard Owen was born on January 6, 1810, in Lanarkshire, Scotland.〔Woodburn, p. 348.〕 He received his early education from a private tutor and from the New Lanark grammar schools. He was sent to Hofwyl, Switzerland, to study chemistry and physics at Philipp Emanuel von Fellenberg's school. After returning to Scotland, Owen continued his scientific education under Andrew Ure at Anderson's Institution (now the University of Strathclyde) at Glasgow. In 1828, Owen arrived in the United States, where his father had established a utopian experiment in New Harmony, Indiana.〔Albjerg, p. 17.〕 During the Mexican–American War, Owen was stationed in Monterrey overseeing provision trains as a captain from April 1847 until August 1848.〔Albjerg, p. 20.〕
