LEWIS Family
Early settlers in Goulbourn Township, Ontario, Canada

March 1, 2004:

Hi, I have done a bit of research on the Lewis family from Goulbourn 
Township and was wondering if you were related to this Lewis family.  I have 
a good bit of info from the Anglican church records in Ottawa, some 
census entries and other Lewis information that I have collected while 
researching this branch of my family tree.  If you are connected please 
let me know.  My Lewis connection is through my gg grandmother Marie 
Anne Lewis, born 1856 Alice Twp, Renfrew Co, daughter of James Lewis and 
Eliza Saunders who married Robert Saunders from Beckwith Twp.

Hi Jason:

Thanks for your e-mail.

I'm not related to the Lewis family from Goulbourn.
My Lewis ancestors came from England much later than
the Goulbourn Lewis family.

to Thomas Bradley.

to Catherine Scott B. 1826 in Goulbourn, Ont, Canada.

married Elizabeth Saunders.  I too am researching the Lewis family and James was the 
son of my grt., grt. grandfather Robert Lewis and Elizabeth Wright.  I am a descendent 
of Robert and his 3rd wife Catherine Empey.  If you are interested in further info
