editHi, having recently spent a long time studying Agent Snow I feel that I could make a strong contribution to the page or even a full rewrite. However, before I do this I was wondering if anyone could give me the source of the comment that he was a spy for sexual reasons, ie the Germans presenting him with a string of women?
- It's in Chapman Pincher's book IIRC. David | Talk 08:20, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
Thanks. That book seemed to completey slip me by.
I would like any information on Agent Snow as I am doing a family tree and he is related to me. user. foxy28
Hi Foxy28, looks like we are related! Do you mind if I ask how you are related to Arthur Owens?

Hi Foxy, Arthur was my Grandfather. Just to confirm that we are talking about the same person, Arthur's mother was Ada Webb, is that the information you have too? My email address is XXXXXXX If you email me your address I can put you in contact with my Mother and Father. My mother has quite an extensive family tree drawn out, so you might be about to gain a couple of hundred relatives! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Syphax1979 (talk • contribs) 16:00, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
Hi. Does anyone have any more information Arthur's childhood as my A.Owens and Syphax1979's dont seem to match. Foxy28 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Foxy28 (talk • contribs) 09:22, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
Hi Syphax1979 I am researching Arthur Owens life for a documentary and would be interested in contacting his relatives. I'm not quite sure how we go about contacting each other on this site but I have information about Owens that might be of interest to you and which could be a useful and interesting twist to the page about him if I can confirm my data.

Fact Checks
editThe article has two different years for his death. Does anyone know the correct year, or even better, the full date? Bill (talk) 12:24, 2 August 2011 (UTC)
- 24 December 1957 is correct. See Madoc Roberts' book for a copy of his death certificate. SNOW's life aside from his intelligence activities had not been fully investigated until recently and I really need to go through and bring the article fully up to date with what is known. Sam Blacketer (talk) 13:37, 2 August 2011 (UTC)
- If 1957 is his true death date the 1976 needs to be removed. 70.92.22.58 (talk) 04:34, 21 August 2011 (UTC)
