This is one of my primary research family names.

LEWIS:

My Lewis family originates, as far back as we have found, from John Lewis and his wife Sarah _____ who lived in the vicinity of Aghory, County Armagh, Ireland. John was born about 1747 and died on November 20, 1829. Sarah was born about 1750 and died on September 10, 1830. They are buried in Mullavilly, County Armagh. Our research shows they had a family of eight children, six boys and two girls.
Their children appear to be William, Robert "Robin", Jennie, _____, John, James, Samuel and Alexander. Many of these families or their descendants seemed to have come to Canada, most settling in Mono Township, Dufferin County, Ontario, at least for some time.
