Looking for LEWIS, GEORGE born 1840-45 Germany-died? (Parents LEWIS George S & Eliza Stople/Stofle both possibly born in Germany. Have no idea of birth or death dates.)

All lived in NYC in the 1860-1880 period. Lewis George married MESSNER, Elizibeth July 1878, ( daughter of Jacob and Franciska Messner) They had son John George Lewis born Sep't 11, 1880-lived on 24th St NYC after that cannot find in any directory or census. NOT, I repeat NOT in the Federal census of 1880 for NYC, I have looked several times..if you find please contact me immediatly with any information. He was a soda merchant and then a driver. Father may have been a "seaman" living on Madison Ave.

Trying to establish places of birth and dates of death for all above,except Elizabeth Messner. Elizabeth later moved to Town of Union/Union City, NJ with her Mother Franciska Messner -living there in 1900 -both widows. I have checked the index of deaths for both Messner and 2 GeorgeLewis circa 1880-1900 in NYC and haven't found the "right" ones.

Any information appreciated. Please contact restarz@bellsouth.net. Pat

HIRAM LEWIS is the father of my gg grandmother Caroline May Lewis. Caroline was born Oct 19, 1847 in Perth Cty, ON, Canada, and married William Charles FERRIS in Feb 1869. On her marriage record it shows Hiram and Mary Ann Lewis as her parents. Mary Ann's surname is unknown. The 1891 census return lists that Caroline's father was born in the USA, and her mother in PEI, Canada. Hiram would have been born before abt 1830 to be Caroline's father.

Anyone with any possibilites, please email me at star.kitty@sympatico.ca

Thanks very much! Jennifer Flegg

ISAAC LEWIS, Jr. (I guess I can possibly assume there was an Isaac, Sr. before him) An Isaac LEWIS first shows up on records in Salem Co., NJ in the 1790's (could be Isaac, Jr. or his father) Isaac, Jr. m. Elizabeth MOORE on July 5, 1807. He had at least 2 children Isaac LEWIS who m. Margaret KIGER of Haines Neck (Salem Co.) on Sept. 27, 1832 and Mary Ann LEWIS who m. John M. KIGER on Jan. 28, 1832. John and Mary Ann are my g-g-grandparents and I would love to learn more about Mary Ann and her parents. By the way, John and Mary Ann also had a son named Isaac. There seem to have been very few LEWIS's in Salem Co., NJ in the mid-1800's, so perhaps Isaac, Sr. or Jr. came from elsewhere- it appears that the family had a long history with the name Isaac- any Isaac LEWIS's out there who may have moved to NJ around the 1790's? Joan Myers Young


Looking for parents of ISAAC LEWIS, b. 1812 GA, m. 1st, Elandor Dechristian 1831, had 15 children, d. Mobile AL.. Pat Elder


I am looking for ISAAC C. LEWIS, born 25 May 1790. He died 11 May 1886. He is the father of my ancestor, Charles Brown Lewis, born 12 Feb 1825 in NY. He lived in Pharsalia, Chenango, NY. Charles' siblings were: Daniel D., Artemisia M., Flavilla (1828), Amanda (1834), Chloe (1837), Allicee (1848). The previous names come from a family bible. A cousin's research says the names should be: Isaac C. Jr., Pardon, Daniel D., Jason, Charles B., Nimia, Chloe Ann. I have Isaac's wife as Abigail, but she may be the second wife. Chloe is possibly the first wife. Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated. Contact me at Morganlewi@AOL.com
