Looking for information on Thomas Lewis aged 66 on 1841 census , a farmer of 100 acres in Llansannan. Wife Elizabeth, 63, born Norley, Cheshire ,and son David, 23.
By 1851 Elizabeth was a widow, back in Norley as a farmer of 14 acres, with Samuel Lewis(21) servant, born Little Budworth.
It's this Samuel who is my ancestor, but I'd like to find out whether there's any family connection with his employer, and if he had family links with Denbighshire. I haven't been able to get any further back than Samuel via the Cheshire route, partly because it's such a common name, so thought this might be worth a try.
