I've asked Julia Lewis Nofsinger from Aylett,Va but she has been too busy and isn't sure of the connection. We would welcome any suggestions from the Lewis family. I'd hate to seem them destroyed. In Northern California we have county government which makes such sites a monument for antiquity sake, and there are laws and punishments for tearing things up. This is the John Lewis who emigrated to Gloucester, Virginia from Wales.

It is in danger of disappearing. Logging skidders have ridden over several of the tombstones and broken them up. There is a lower income housing development going up around it and kids appear to go there to party. The hisrtorical society looked into it a few years ago and could not come to a decision nor find any volunteers. My husband even called Peter Grover of the APVA and asked about the feasibility of moving them to Warner Hall, which is across the creek and owned by APVA and connected to the Lewis'.
