: I appreciated the contributor trying to set out a time line. That was so thoughtful of Mr. Batts to provide clarification.

. Lewis married Sarah Bromley. They had one child, Jonas Clay. When Sarah died, Jonas married Sarah's younger sister, Nancy Bromley. They had three children, Albert, Mary, and Paul.
