Biography

Robert Morrison Jr. says she was born on May 15,1798 in Sumter Co., SC, and died in Covington County, MS around 1818. The date of birth may be right, but the date of death can't be since Howell and Nancy are in the 1850 Jones County, MS census and Nancy Lewis is named in her father's 1843 will.

Other sources give place of birth as Cheraw, Chesterfield, South Carolina.

1850 Census Jones Co, MS (household 112). Living near son John. Household Members: Name Age Howel Lewis 68 Nancy Lewis 63 Elbert Lewis 22
