When I was first doing my genealogy I believed that this David Lewis, Sr., was the son of the John Lewis of Warner Hall, Virginia. However, I was notified by a member of that family and told that DNA proved that this David Lewis, Sr., was not descended from the Warner Hall Lewis family. Please do not confuse the two families.

Thank you for this note. The Geni tree shows him as parents unknown, with locked relationships.

I have his parents as David Lewis, born about 1662 in Prince George County, Maryland, and died 5 Mar 1710 in Virginia; and Jane Crawford, born about 1672 in Winchester, Frederick, Virginia, and died about 1730 in Haverford, Chester, Pennsylvania. The Maryland, Births and Christening Index, 1662-1911 is the source for this.

Actually, the death date of David Lewis Sr. should say after 6 Oct 1773. That was the date of his will. He must have died soon after because the will was probated 11 Nov 1773.
