Carl,
I as sorry that it has taken me so long to respond to your message, but I was out of town. I really can't help you with Lewis and I know how frustrating it can be. My mother never told me much about her family, so I am working at a disadvantage. However, this is the way to start is to list your question on the Conklin board. That is how I got started and relatives were kind enough to come back with as much information as they had and the search goes on. I don't see a Lewis in any information that I have, but I will keep an eye out for him during my search. Good Luck!!!
