William T.A. (Thomas Andrew) Lewis b. 1818 in MD
m. Matilda Kelly apprx 1840 - presumably in PGC.
William was a shoemaker.
They had the following children:
Mary A. Lewis b. apprx 1842
Joshua A. Lewis - b.6 OCt 1844
William T. Lewis b. Mar 1846
james Henry Lewis - b. 15 Mar 1851
George W. Lewis - b.25 Sep 1855
Elizabeth A. Lewis - b.1856
Casandra Lewis - b 7 Dec 1857
The first clue to a connection in PG County, was the obituary for Matilda Kelly Lewis who d.13 Sep 1888 - where DC papers were requested to copy.
I then pulled the Death Cert for her oldest daughter - Mary A, Lewis - who was born apprx 1841-1842 - her birthplace is listed as Laurel, MD. -
William and his family do not show in the Baltimore City Directories until the late 1840's - So this coincides with the fact that the Lewis famiy was in the Laurel area.
Thanks for any assistance.

Kevin Johnston
