Folks, I am seeking any info about David Lewis listed as one of the first settlers of Eagle Creek, Benton County, TN and cited within the "Goodspeed" History of Benton, Co, TN which contains Camden, TN One source for this claim is made at: http://www.tngenweb.org/benton/goodspeedhist.html 09/12/08; and, on 5 April 2002, I made an inquiry to the LEWIS MSG. Board, with no success of replies. Now it is 2009. There is a David Lee Lewis born 30 January 1877, Camden, TN which is within Benton County, TN. This David Lee Lewis later died on 6 November 1938, and does not have a US SSI record. Apparently he died without a SS number. I have not yet discovered his wife's name, but he did have 7 children and so far I have found one of those children a son named Herschel Nathan Lewis, was born in Jefferson, Texas and as well as having 6 brothers, Herschel had one sister named Hazel Lewis who married a Mr. Burns and they lived in Sulpher Springs, Texas. I am trying to find out if anyone has connected David Lee Lewis born 30 January 1877, Camden, TN to the original settler named David Lewis of Eagle Creek in Benton County TN ??? Camden is within Benton County, TN. Perhaps there are other siblings of David Lewis (the settler) as we know there are 7 children of David Lee Lewis 1877 TN - died 6 November 1938 who may have died in Texas (Not proven yet). Any research is greatly appreciated if anyone has those census records of TN or TX. Birth, Death, Burials are a big plus. Someone must be alive that is descent of this line of Lewis surname and may be within the LEWIS DNA tests.
