The 1850 Scott County AR Census has Claiborn Lewis and family from TN/KY in dwelling 271 of Hickman Township. Next door is Jonathon Haynes and family(Harriet Lewis, his wife died 1855) in dwelling 272 of Tumlinson Township. Previously both families were landowners in Washington County. Someone(I lost the email) had contacted me from this list or the Scott Cty one about a possible relationship between Harriet Lewis and Samuel and Bricey Lewis of VineyardTownship Washington Cty AR. There are 2 other Lewis families in Scott County AR in 1850 of interest. Joseph Lewis and wife Ruina, including sons John,19 Josiah,14 and James,10 are from TN/NC and are in dwelling 421 Boon Township. Close by in dwelling 452 of Boon Township is Obediah Lewis and wife Margaret, with a son James C. 2 yrs old. We think the Boon township Lewises may be related to Samuel Lewis of Washington County, Vineyard Township. You might check the Logan County AR Marriage Records1877-1924 book by Emily Tucker available from Arkansas Research too. We have some Washburn Sebastian County AR Lewises in it that were married in Logan County.

Obediah/Obadiah Lewis may have been in Ripley County, Missouri during the 1840 census. His family info from the 1850 census fits into this family. 1840 Census: Ripley County, Missouri p. 348 Obadiah Lewis 1 0 1 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 Free White Males under 5 (1) William C. abt. age abt. 2 10 & under 15 (1) unknown male 20 & under 30 (1) unknown male 30 & under 40 (1) Obadiah abt. age 30 Free White Females under 5 (1) Sarah abt. age 5 5 & under 10 (1) Mary C. abt. age 7 20 & under 30 (1) Margarett??? abt. age 28 1850 Census: Boon, Scott, Arkansas; Roll: M432_30; Page: 158; Image: 315. p159 Obediah Lewis 40 Farmer Tennesse Margarett Lewis 28 Missouri Mary C Lewis 17 Missouri Sarah Lewis 15 Tennessee William C Lewis 12 Tennessee Stephen G Lewis 9 Missouri Elizabeth M Lewis 6 Arkansas James C Lewis 2 Arkansas It appears that Margarett may be Obediah's 2nd wife since she is too young to be the mother of his older children unless her age is wrong in the 1850 census and she is actually abt. 38. Living in Boon, Scott, Arkansas in 1850 is also the family of Claiburn Lewis.

Earl/Earle Eason Lewis b. between 1760-1770, presumed to be abt. 1770. He is found in Wayne Co., Tennessee in 1820, 1830 and in Crawford Co., Arkansas in 1840. He is the presumed father of : * [--?--] Lewis (male) b. Bet. 1794 - 1801 * Harriet Lewis b. abt 1800 in Kentucky and found in Scott Co., Arkansas in 1850 and m. Jonathan Haynes; d. 1855 Montgomery Co., Arkansas * Claibourn Lewis b. 1803 in Kentucky and found in Scott Co., Arkansas in 1850; m. Margaret [--?--]; d. Dec. 6, 1876 Scott Co., Arkansas * [--?--] Lewis (female) b. Bet. 1795 - 1804 * [--?--] Lewis (female) b. Bet. 1810 - 1819 * [--?--] Lewis (female) b. Bet. 1810 - 1819 * [--?--] Lewis (female) b. Bet. 1810 - 1819 * [--?--] Lewis (female) b. Bet. 1810 - 1819 * David E. Lewis b.1821 Wayne County, Tennessee and found in Scott Co., Arkansas in 1850; m. Sarah Douglass Blakemore; d. Sept. 1, 1909 Madera, Madera Co., California and possible father of: * James Lewis b. abt. 1807 in Kentucky found in Richland, Crawford Co., Arkansas in 1850 * Mary Lewis b. abt. 1809 in Kentucky found in Richland, Crawford Co., Arkansas in 1850; supposedly m. John Haynes * Joseph F. Lewis b. abt 1825 in Tennessee found in Richland, Crawford Co., Arkansas in 1850; m. Melissa [--?--] My hope is that male descendants of Claibourn and of David E. Lewis will get a DNA test to help determine their relationship and perhaps determine whether my James M. Lewis is their brother.
