Hi Betty

Thanks so much for replying. Although I can't see an immediate connection between the Lewis family you are researching and mine , I am very grateful for the information - as reference. I hope you don't mind, but I posted your reply on the thread I have started at www.liverpool-genealogy.org.uk. There are two people on that forum who have Lewis relatives from Liverpool - so maybe there will be some connection there.

Once again, thanks - and good luck with your research.

Clare
