| Roger LeRoy Lewis was born Dec. 17, 1920 in Port Huron, Michigan to Florence Belle Lewis (nee Gregg) and Clayton Arthur Lewis.I am in the earliest stage of developing a family history for myself and my wife, Mary (nee Rittenger), covering the ancestral Lewis, Gregg and Rittenger roots so that our children and grandchildren may learn about their lineage.Some material is in hand. A three page account of my mother's ancestry, dating back to one Hugh Gregg, born in1760 in New York State, covering both the Gregg and Farlow sides, was compiled by Opha Straub, mother's younger sister, using personal knowledge and information supplied by relatives. My father constructed a family tree covering both the Lewis and Mann ancestors, his parents being Damon Lewis and Floretta Mann. A family bible is in the hands of Julia Lewis, widow of my older brother, Harold Gregg Lewis,of Durham, N.C. Finally, family history for the Rittenger family has been gathered by my wife's younger sister and husband, Jane and Jerold Jasperse of High Point, N.C. Gravesites for Rittengers dating back to the early 1800s are to be found in rural cemeteries near Grand Rapids, Michigan.I will appreciate hearing from anyone who is pursuing similar lineage in order that a mutually helpful exchange of information can be made. | |
