WILLIAM W. LEWIS may be related somehow to :
OLIVER P. LEWIS, born about 1825 in Pennsylvania. In 1850 he was living in Spring Garden in Philadelphia’s 3rd Ward (Precinct 1). In the same household lived Elizabeth Lewis, aged 10 months, born in Pennsylvania; also Margaret Hess, age 40, Jacob Hess, age 19, Catherine Hess, age 16, Caroline Hess, age 13, and Emma Hess, age 10, and Amanda Hess, age 7). In 1860 Oliver was living in the 13th Ward of Philadelphia (page 780) with Margaret Lewis (born about 1821 in Pennsylvania. Also living in the household were Catharine Shinn (age 25), Emma Hess (age 20), Ella Shinn (age 1), and Lizzie Lewis (age 10). They were living next door to Robert Heiss, a confectioner, who may have known Samuel Bingham, who was also a confectioner. On June 20, 1870, Oliver P. Lewis, a "boot manufacturer", was living in Philadelphia’s 13th Ward (page 459) with "Margaret Hess," age 60. Both were born in Pennsylvania.
