Fred,  I think I know which Lewis family you are looking for.  Lena (Magdalena) and John are both names in this family, and they settled in the Steuben area after leaving the Amsterdam, NY area.  It's a very large family, and I would need to know the name of one member who would have been born around 1800 to be sure.  Some members were Loyalists and came to Canada, but most stayed in NY.  They intermarried with the Gunsolus family in 2 or 3 generations.  I have been to the Bath area, and there are many lewis graves in 2 cemeteries there. You can write me off list bgnrogers@yahoo.com --- On Tue, 3/24/09, Fred Lewis <fslewis3@email.com> wrote: From: Fred Lewis <fslewis3@email.com> Subject: Re: [LEWIS] LEWIS Digest, Vol 4, Issue 85 To: lewis@rootsweb.com Date: Tuesday, March 24, 2009, 10:33 PM Still looking, any ideas??? lose the past from here, MY brick wall, hence the DNA, family was back and forth from Canada William Harrison Lewis and Janette Smith, of Bath, NY, he was a carpenter, wounded in Civil War, etc., spent HOURS, but no positive hook back yet, maybe a John was his father, but some doubts.  His kids were Ellis D, Lena, Fred S & John.  Lena married Dr. Fitzgerald, oldest doctor in Steuben Co, NY and was postmistress of Savona PO.
