There's a family tree on Ancestry which suggests his parents are Louis Eazebrook and Phoebe. There's no documentary evidence attached to it
There is a Lewis Hesbrook who marries in Cheltenham in 1857, son of another Lewis (both servants). However on censuses he generally claims to have been born in Brompton, Middlesex
I notice one of George's grandsons is called Lewis
However I can find little hard documentary evidence at present - this is all rather speculatory

It’s a friend I’m asking for so I wouldn’t know where to start or look on their behalf. There is no evidence with Louis and phoebe.

only likely marriage is 9 Aug 1824 in St Margaret's, Westminster for John Woolley, bachelor, and Phoebe Hezebrook, widow, both otp, witnesses Robert & Hannah Pebworth.
Later census entries show Phoebe's place of birth as Knightwick, Worcs and John is born in county (Shropshire) in 1841. Long way from home to get married. :-\

If it's the same Phoebe that was with Lewis, they did travel about. From Frances' baptism Lewis was a gentleman's servant, which is quite a mobile job travelling with the master
