It seems that the Lewis surname was aka Louis at one point! Lewis is very prominenet Native american name as well. Many tribal Nations have shared this name. It seems some started in New England and others starrting in the South. Many of the them of course refer back to Meriweather Lewis. Also a James Otto Lewis . Still have not broken the Henry I need. But, stemming from New York I have about 20-25 to try and link. There was a Frank N Lewis that had an adopted daughter in Wisconsin...Frank also died about the time frame we have been searching. there are Frank. I have been searching for that Old lady Wheeler that you had found. I cant seeem to find her name..do you remember it? I have found LEwis,Burdick and Wheelers related in NY. I think the Old Lady was a grandparent and or Aunt. If I dont hear from you have a safe and wonderful holiday. Lee
