I am John Fielding Lewis, Jr., President General of the Lewis Family Descendants. I hope you are reading this because you are interested in the Lewis family, or, you are already a documented lineage member.
The Lewis Family Descendants support Kenmore Mansion, the colonial home of Betty Washington and Fielding Lewis in Fredericksburg, Virginia. We are currently planning a family gathering (Heritage Weekend) August 29 through September 1, 2024 in Fredericksburg, VA. Please check back periodically for updates on this event.
Our membership includes, primarily, descendants of Fielding Lewis, Sr. and Betty Washington Lewis, George Washington's only sister. We are currently working to fill our Registrar position and will not be taking applications for new membership at this time. Please check back for future updates on our membership application process.
A list of Qualifying Ancestors is on this website. If you can document your legal, blood descent from these ancestors you will not need to document your earlier Lewis Ancestor. This list of Qualifying Ancestors brings your proven descent much closer to your own generation.
