Mr. Lewis

M, #127, b. circa 1820
  • Mr. Lewis was born c 1820.
  • Mr. Lewis married Anna [?].
  • Mr. Lewis died.
  • There are baptisms for a Sophia and Anastasia by a John and "Jesse" OXFORD, but they do not appear in later census reports. And how these people might be related to John Oxford is very much an open question. Please contact the Webmaster if you have further information.
  • Mr. Lewis, first husband of Anna who later married John Oxford, is a theoretical person based on speculation found in the Courtney Papers. To date, there is no documentation. However, based on the fact that most of the information in the Courtney Papers has turned out to be correct, if a bit garbled at times, I hope that Mr. Lewis will eventually show up. Please contact the Webmaster if you have further information.
