Have you tried entering your results on Ysearch.org? The members of the LEWIS Surname Project (or at least some of them)have entered their results in the database which you can search and compare to. You just have to be sure and convert a couple of your values to be uniform when your submitting your entry. I've come up with more Lewis matches, although they are very distant as well as very close non-Lewis matches. I'm considering resubmitting a test to the surname project, familytree dna offers a special price if you've already been tested by another lab. There are a lot of Lewises out there. It's possible your close match just isn't in the database yet. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
