General Notes: Husband - Nehemiah Lewis

---

In 1774, according to the Rhode Island census, he had in his family at Gloucester one son under sixteen and one female. His father is not found as head of a family, but may have been living with a son. Nehemiah Lewis may have lived in Connecticut before going to New York state. He is said to have been a soldier in the revolution. One public record, probably of his service, was a minute of service with the "main army in New York" dated May 30, 1783 (page 227, vol. viii, Connecticut Historical Society). In 1790 there were two Nehemiah Lewis families in Litchfield County, Connecticut, but at that time this family was in New York state. No Nehemiah Lewis appears in Rhode Island in 1790, and no revolutionary record is found in the incomplete records of Rhode Island under this name.
