I don't have any records of children born to Dorothea Blakely and John Lewis born between 1864 and 1866. I know of a girl who was born and died in 1867.
John Lewis 3rd July 1864 Blakley Lisburn

Not Captured Lewis 19th April 1867 Female Blackley Larne

You really do need to include more details! A year, bride's surname and/or place would have made this MUCH easier to find!

William Armstrong LEWIS is indeed the same older brother of Capt John and Mary Jane LEWIS.  I have his children's births, but not the death of his first wife Anna Margaret, or the marriage of his second wife, Mary Jennings

His 1894 marriage to Mary Jennings was in Lancashire, England-

So, suppose it's possible Anna could have died in Ireland or England.

Thank you. I'm familiar with these sources and the two records quoted.  Dorothea Blakely and John Lewis married at the registry office 7.7.1854, but lied about their ages to avoid parental consent, so at only  18, she was undoubtedly pregnant, but I cannot find a children born between 1854 and 1867, except the four  siblings quoted, but there must have been more not recorded in the births register.

Civil registration of births started in 1864 so there will be no birth certificates for any born before that year.

Good find.

Any children etc probably married in England!!

Yes, I'm aware of that fact, which is why I'm looking for alternative family records.  This is precisely how I found online that Mary Jane LEWIS was born 17 Sep 1860 in Magheraknock, Co Down.  So somewhere there must be other sibling records that I have not yet found.
