John Lewis was born about 1662, perhaps in Northumberland County. His parents are unknown.
John married to Mary Garner, widow of George Courtnell and daughter of John Garner and Susannah Keene. They had five children.
In February 1683 John and Mary petitioned to court for an additional share of land in George Courtnell's estate beyond the third that was due to Mary but the plea was dismissed.
John died about 1697. County records show that his will was probated on May 19th, 1697, but the will book for that year was destroyed in a fire at the courthouse.
Mary lived until about 1726.
John is our ancestor along two lines. His daughter Elizabeth was a 5th great grandmother to Laura Alice Sisson through the Tune and Gordon families. His daughter Anne was also a 5th great grandmother of Laura Alice through the Claughton and Cralle lines.
