Note:
This John Lewis was a member of the Virginia House of Burgesses PIONEER LEWIS FAMILIES by Michael L. Cook Indicates that Major JOHN LEWIS was the son of Col. John Lewis born about 16 16-18 in Monmouthshire, Wales & grandson of the immigrant John Lewis & wife Lidia. Major JOHN LEWIS was born about 1639-40 probably in Monmouthshire or Brecknockshire, Wales and migrated to America approximately 1655 a few years after his father. He lived with the Mostyn family in Denbighshire for a time before emigrating.
CONFLICT: He married ISABELLA MILLER Some sources say this wife was ISABELLA WARNER but there several wives.
They had 15 children. She married 2nd Robert Yard.
Children of Major JOHN & ISABELLA were:
Mary born about 1665
Edward born September 5, 1667
Elizabeth born about 1668
John born November 30, 16 69
William born about 1670
Nicholas born about 1671
David born about 1672
Zachary born about 1673
Thomas born about 1674
James born about 1675
Mildred born about 1676
Sarah born about 1678 (ours)
Gawin born about 1680
Patience born ab out 1682
Owen born about 1684
{note: there is still controversy over the number of John Lewises in this line I am in the corner that believes there were 3 John (Immigrant), Maj. John, and John (Warner Hall) The lineage above is not
correct based on their tombstones. On the tombstone of Edward Lewis he states he is the Child of JOHN LEWIS & ISABELLA and grandson of JOHN LEWIS of Monmouthshire. That makes JOHN who married ISABELLA son of the immigrant - not grandson}
WILLIAM AND MARY COLLEGE QUARTERLY Series 1 Vol 9 pages 259-261
Lewis Family of Warner Hall Now there was a John Lewis who has better claims than either Robert or Major William Lewis to be considered the propositus of the family of Warner Hall. This was John Lewis who patented 100 acres in Warwick county at the Deceased of Deep Creek, and in 1653 patented 250 acres on a branch of Poropo tank Creek, in Glouchester county, which branch was then called LewisÆ Creek bu t formerly TotopotomoyÆs Creek. At the foot of the later patent are given the names of those on account of whose importation he was entitled to the land (i.e. , 50 acres for each), viz., John Lewis, probably himself; Lydia Lewis, probably his wife; William Lewis, Edward Lewis and John Lewis, Jr. (probably his sons). à "JOHN LEWIS, JR.," had a grant in 1655 for 250 acres at the main swamp of Po ropotank Creek. As "Mr. JOHN LEWIS," he patented April 22, 1658, 100 acres in New Kent, northeast side of CainhowÆs Swamp, and in 1667, 2600 acres in New Kent and Glouchester on both sides of Poropotank Creek, "next below the plantation of said JOHN LEWIS," 600 acres of which was granted to said JOHN LEWIS by patent dated November 23, 1663. His residence in 1676 being near Major Thomas PateÆs , where Bacon encamped, he suffered severely from the depredations of his troop s. In 1680, he was captain of horse in the militia of New Kent, and one of its justices. New Kent then took in King and Queen county as far down as Poropotank Creek. In 1675 he was termed major (in the foot service) and patented in New Kent 10,000 acres with Lieut. Col. John Smith, Capt. Philip Lightfoot, Mr. Thoma s Royston and Mr. John Buckner (General Court Records).
According to the tombstone of his son Col. John Lewis (Quarterly, II., p. 227), he married ISABELLA _______, and had issue, John Lewis of Warner Hall.
Accordingly 3 John Lewis, of Warner Hall, son of 2 Major JOHN2 LEWIS and ISABELLA his wife, who was probably son of 1 John1 Lewis and Lydia his wife.
