Frederick Mortimer Lewin died in 1877 and his death was registered in Dartford.
Can someone find him for me in 1871 please? He was born about 1799 and spent about 30 years in India. He was a judge when he left India in 1847. I do not know where he was born but when he married in1839 his father was named as Thomas Lewin of the Hollies, Kent I believe this could be a house in Dartford.
Any help much appreciated.

Goodness! It must be my week for getting replies to really old posts.
It is a long while since I looked at this part of the Lewin family and I didn't have those baptisms so thank you bearkat. It looks as though I need to do a fair amount of updating of this part of my tree.
Chris I am afraid I know nothing about Julia Reeves.

Thanks Jolee.
Since I posted this request in 2005 I have been able to follow up many of the branches of the Lewin family so I have a lot more information than I did then. I have been helped of course because of the vast increase in online records but also managed to buy two huge volumes called the Lewin Letters which have lots of information in them. Not necessarily all accurate mind you!
