Hello, I've posted a new query on the Liverpool List and someone has found a possible birth record for my ancestor, Richard LEWIS. From the 1841 and 1851 census for England, we thought he was born in ~1805 in Shrewsbury, Shropshire, England. This is a record which a researcher found: I G I shropshire-shrewsbury-st julian, Richard lewis, Christened 31/01/1803. Father Thomas Lewis, Mother Harriot I went to www.familysearch.org and looked for Thomas LEWIS born in the mid-1700's. I found at least 20 of them, and there were probably more. It was a very popular name. And they were all born in different towns in Shropshire. There was only one born in Shrewsbury, born 1770, and he had the parents Richard and Ann LEWIS. By the way, my ancestors, Richard and Elizabeth LEWIS were probably married ~1825 in Liverpool, Lancashire, England. Their 7 children were born there from ~1827. Their first 2 children were Ann and Sarah, then they had 5 sons, William, John, Charles, Henry, and Richard. My gr-gr-grandfather was John LEWIS in Liverpool until he died ~1871. I'm just curious if anyone else is researching the Thomas LEWIS's born in County Shropshire, England. (I just listed the Thomas LEWIS' born in mid-1700's in County Shropshire on the Shropshire List. There were probably more that I didn't get to, yet.) Betty (near Lowell, MA, USA) (As I've mentioned before, John LEWIS, seems to have had only one child, son, John "Stanley" LEWIS, born Dec. 1859 Liverpool. After his parents both died, he went to the Blue Coat School, and then to the "Liverpool Sheltering Homes." From there, in 1874, he was "shipped to Canada" as a "child migrant.") FYI: Just a reminder that there was a Thomas LEWIS born ~1590 in Shrewsbury, Shropshire, England, who married Elizabeth, and headed to "the new world." Probably in 1620's he went to the MA Bay Colony and settled in Saco, Maine. It would be interesting to find out if my Richard LEWIS born a century later in same town was somehow related to that Thomas.

I wish I did but that's all I have. We believe his wife is Mary Elizabeth Cunningham. I don't know where my aunts found that name, but I have found a census with my Thomas and a wife mary but that's it. Is your Thomas from the louden franklin co area of PA. I looked on a map and it is a hop skip and a jump from hancock, md.

I'm stuck at my Thomas f. lewis. I found an obit online that has the exact death date, and place and the name is written how I have it Thomas f. lewis. It also listed he was 48 years old which is how old my Thomas was. I have no clue where he was born, but in this obit it said he was from Loudon, PA, franklin Co. I'm wondering if any of you out there have a Thomas lewis or Thomas f. lewis in your ancestry but only have the name listed as a sibling. My Thomas moved to hancock, md at some point in his life but not sure when. Thanks for looking and helping.

These families settled Petersburgh, NY together. A search on FamilySearch.org for Leonard Lewis b1800, NY will I think find Amasa's father and grandparents, cousins Uriah and Mary Lewis. Uriah was born in Hopkinton RI (Lewis City) in 1771. His parents were Abel Lewis and Thankful Maccoone. Though some info on FamilySearch is suspect, I think this sounds accurate. My own Lewis family is from Westerly and passed through Petersburgh on their way west. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

The one I clicked on, a message said that page could not be found. It was the one for the Elizabeth and Ann, that sailed from Liverpool, England on June 29, 1716. But, that gave me an idea & I typed in that ships name on Google & found a manifest(or whatever they call it) of the ship's passengers & I found my Prophet(Proffit) ancestor in the passengers who were on board that ship. 29 were indentured and my ancestor was among the 83 who were not indentured. The story goes that he refused to be indentured, so they forced him to come to the North.America Colonies anyway. When he got here he lived in Virginia & bound himself out to a family by name of Pleasant. It's believed that he married one of their daughters. He had the land he was given, then he sold some to someone, then bought some more & ended with quite a bit of land where he built a mansion on it. So, all of this because he tried to help overthrow the King of England. I haven't found my Lewis ancestor yet. They are supposed to have come from Wales to New Jersey.
