Hello Debbie -?
?
You said, "My brick wall is Samuel Cook Lewis b. 1822 Stanstead, QC, Canada".
Many families moved up the Hudson River from the US following the Revolutionary War in search of land and opportunity.? Have you looked at the Oaths of Allegiance for Samuel's father?? If a man was accepted as a Loyalist, he may have received land - have you searched land records?? My ancestor was not a Loyalist - he signed the Oath yet never received a land grant, but I found him living on land that had been granted to his son-in-law.? Notarial Records are great sources for many records requiring anything legal.? Also, many times people crossed the US-CA border if it was easier or less expensive to accomplish something. Without knowing the extent of your research, I mean these merely as possible sources.
?
Happy hunting!

I am so sorry, I thought I sent this weeks ago.? ? Thank you so much Shon,?for the information.? I do not know who Samuels father or mother was but suspect that his grandfather may have been a William Lewis, a loyalist, who moved to Canada from New York or New Jersey. A Lewis family lived near the border of thos e 2 states in the early 1800's.? I will look further into the land records.? I was unaware that there were land grants.?? I'm glad to see this site up and running, again. Debbie?
