You may be interested to know that I think I resolved the Henry Furnival Lewer dilemma. Henry Lewer 1751 - 1819 had a son with Ann Clinkard nee Thompson by the name Butler Adolphus Lewer (circa 1802-1866) whom in turn with Helen Bloom nee Johnson had a son, Henry Furnival Lewer (1826-1866) That same mentioned Henry Lewer above, was previously married to Mary Langstaff and with her had a son, Augustus Henry Lewer (1777- 1827). Augustus married Ellen Bates and they had a son, Henry Lewer (1802 - 1863). This younger Henry Lewer married Ann Mason and with her had eight children. By 1851 however he was with Hannah Page, nee Roberts. This Hannah Page in fact is also Henry Furnival Lewer`s mother in - law, as she is Ann Pages biological mother. ( Ann Page and Henry Furnival Lewer are my three times great grand parents)

Hi, i am a direct descendant of Henry Furnival Lewer through his daughter Henrietta. I am most interested in expanding my family tree as far as possible by what means i have at my disposal, so any links to other family trees would be most appreciated, and i am more than willing to to the same . Henrietta married my twice great grandfather Bodo Jean Dangers. Thank you for any help given in this matter.
