Research Notes

Given/Middle Names: Either Elizabeth Ann or Ann Elizabeth, or Anne (nickname Betsy).

Birth Information: Both profiles merged on 28 January 2023 had birth place as Yadkin, Rowan, North Carolina - one with Yadkin & one with Yadkin River - but the profile that called her "Elizabeth Ann "Betsy" (Stewart) Lewis" had text that said she was "probably in Wilkes County, North Carolina....^[1]" The two profiles had different birth dates, which may represent birth and baptism dates.

• Ann Elizabeth (Stewart) Lewis, born 10 September 1769^[3]
• "Anne Stewart, b. 25 Feb 1770^[2]"

Marriage: Unsourced marriage information from a FamilySearch tree says that she and James G. Lewis married 25 February 1786 in Wilkes, North Carolina, United States.^[4]

Death: The death information from FamilySearch says that she died on 29 July 1848,^[4] but cites a now-removed Find a Grave memorial as saying she died in 1844. The record of the memorial in FamilySearch has "Unknown Cemetery" and a birth date of 25 February 1770. While the record also notes the memorial "Contains Biography", whatever the biography might have said was not recorded.^[5]
