William Lewis
« on: Wednesday 01 May 13 15:03 BST (UK) »
Hi all

I need a little help my 4th great grandfather William Lewis born between 1813 and 1816 according to the census of 1851, 1861, 1871 in Gedney, lincolnshire.  Family have told me his father was William Eley Lewes and mother Catherine Leam father born about 1780 and mother 1785.  His wife was mary ann dyer and he died in 1889 camberwell, surrey.  he was based for a time in Malta where 2 of his children were born Elizabeth 1843 and William J Lewis 1845.  Can anyone look on birth records or census as I am getting a bit befuddled with all the looking help would be appreciated.  Thank youx
