Biography

Lewis married Rebecca Ann Baird in 1867, one month before she gave birth to their daughter, Jennie. This shotgun marriage didn't last, because Lewis remarried again in 1875 and 1885.

His last marriage to Belle Gibson, however, lasted until their deaths in the 1890s. (Belle's grave info here
