Birth

1834

Lewis Ross was born in 1834 in Lower Mount Bethel Township, Northampton County, Pennsylvania. In the 1850 census, Lewis is living with Elizabeth (Ross) Brittain and her husband Nathaniel, a few houses away from her father Joseph. Her mother had died 5 years before. At this time, I am guessing that Lewis is her brother, and will adjust if I find out to the contrary.¹
