    1. Re: [WVMONROE-L] Monroe Historical Society
    2. Virginia, Thanks for the information on the Allegheny Highlands Gen.Society days, hours. I just sent in a membership form. Unfortunately, work responsibilities are changing my plans to visit down there next week. I do hope to make the trip soon, though. By the way, I've been looking for several years for anything about the John Lewis, after whom Lewis Tunnel and Lewis Mountain are named. He was my 4th great grandftather. I've pretty well concluded that he was not related to the famous Lewis family of Augusta, Alllegheny and Monroe counties (Andrew Lewis, et al.) Would there be any information on him in the historical society collections? I've scoured the records in the courthouse and in Richmond, but have found nothing about his origin. He probably was born about 1787 and died in Allegheny County in before October 1869, when his will was probated.
