Hi cardiff

Sorry to be depressing but I can't find any Lewis's at all in Barrow Gurney in 1841. As for Francis Lewis's in Somerset, there appears to be one (female) aged 12 in Bristol and one (male) aged 20 in Pawlett (the other end of the county from Barrow Gurney)

I would think that the Pawlett one was the most likely as Pawlett is just down the road from Huntspill - which might match with the place of origin you have. Just in case, here are the details -

Ref HO107/953/6 Folio  10 Page 13 - Pawlett

Francis Lewis - 20 - M.S. (=Male Servant) - Y (Y=born in county)

He is one of 2 servants in the household of William Dod - 45 - Yeoman

Regards

Angela
