Jesse 1758-1841 > Vyer is ELVIRA LEWIS 1770 NC that married William Shepherd Sr. 1790 VA (Both ELVIRA and WM. Sr. died in Wise Co., VA in years abt 1833) > ELVIRA is first child born of all James T. Lewis 1735-1825 , children. > > > It would be great for females born direct down from ELVIRA LEWIS to start having their DNA called mtDNA tests, and we could close in on identifying the Mother of ELVIRA and JAMES Lewis II. ELVIRA has one daughter named REBECCA Shepherd born 1798VA - died 1865 KY and she married her brother-in-law the REV. William T. WELLS 1798 VA - died 1878 KY. REBECCA had a dau. among her children: NANCY WELLS 1826 that md Mr. John Enoch KILBOURNE born 1818 in Lee Co., KY. Where these women descents have continued to have daughters it is probably the only chance the LEWIS descents will ever have the opportunity to discover the actual Mrs. JAMES T. LEWIS mother (of ELVIRA and JAMES Jr.) that died in North Carolina while ELVIRA and James were very small children. JOHN in CA<BR><BR><BR>**************<BR>Gas prices getting you down?
