Hi Everybody, I have a mystery to solve and perhaps someone here knows something.... - William Henry Lewis a pioneer of Potter County married Ruth Althea BIERCE. The had a ton of kids who settled Potter County and surrounding counties as well. There is absolutely nothing to be found about Ruth and her antecedants. She is believed to be born in Connecticut. She and William Henry came here first to Upper Lisle, NY before settling in Ulysses. Anyone here know the name BIERCE or any children from this marriage? The tree, below, is my "ghost tree" I made for her as I researched the family Bierce of Lichtfield, CT. Any hints would be great! Thanks!

Biographies from Ulysses Township, Potter Co., PA
Submitted by Barb Hyde

SETH LEWIS, attorney at law, Lewisville, a son of William and Ruth A. (Bierce) Lewis, was born at Upper Lisle, Broome Co., N.Y., January 27, 1829.
His parents came to Potter county, Penn., February 14, 1839, and located in what is now Lewisville.
William Lewis made farming his business, which he continued until his death, September 26, 1866, his widow surviving until February 18, 1869.
They reared a family of nine children:
Crayton, Angeline, Louisa,
Anna, Perry, Martha,
Thomas, Seth and Burton.

Seth Lewis came to Potter county with his parents, remaining with them until 1850.
The following six years he devoted to agriculture, and also attended Alfred University. He then taught school two years, and in 1860 was elected county superintendent of schools, serving one term.

In 1863 he enlisted in Company K, Thirty-seventh Pennsylvania Militia, and September 23 was mustered into Company A, Eighth United States Colored Troops, as second lieutenant. He was wounded in the left thigh at the battle of Olustee, Fla., February 20, 1864, and October 13, 1864, was wounded in the left hand near Richmond, Va. November 28, 1864, he was promoted to first lieutenant, and February 8, 1865, was made captain of Company C. He was present at the surrender of Gen. Robert E. Lee at Appomattox, and, on May 31, 1865, left Fortress Monroe for Texas, reaching Ringgold barracks July 31, when he returned to Brownsville, and was mustered out November 10, but was retained and paid until December 13, 1865.

After his return home he studied law with Judge A.G. Olmsted, and was admitted to the bar in 1867.
He first practiced at Union, West Va., but returned to Ulysses, where he is still engaged in the practice of his chosen profession.
He was also editor of the Ulysses Sentinel from September, 1882, to January, 1888.
He was married, January 30, 1851, to Sarah E., daughter of Adna A. and Rodentha Gridley.
Their children were
- Charles H. (deceased),
- Mary Eloise (Mrs. George A. Farnsworth),
- Jessie Florence (who graduated from the Genesee Wesleyan Seminary, at Lima, N.Y., June 20, 1889,) and
- Sarah Rodentha (deceased).
Mr. Lewis is a charter member of Lewisville Lodge, No. 556, F. & A.M., and has been its secretary since its organization. He is also a member of Ulysses Chapter, No. 269, R.A.M., and of O.A. Lewis Post, No. 279, G.A.R. He is an active worker in the ranks of the Republican party, and a radical tariff man.
He was elected district attorney in 1869, and served four years.
He was either a teacher, school director or superintendent from the age of twenty years to the beginning of the war, and subsequently, until the past twelve years, was school director.

Hi Everybody, I have a mystery to solve and perhaps someone here knows something....
- William Henry Lewis a pioneer of Potter County married Ruth Althea BIERCE. The had a ton of kids who settled Potter County and surrounding counties as well. There is absolutely nothing to be found about Ruth and her antecedants. She is believed to be born in Connecticut. She and William Henry came here first to Upper Lisle, NY before settling in Ulysses. Anyone here know the name BIERCE or any children from this marriage? The tree, below, is my "ghost tree" I made for her as I researched the family Bierce of Lichtfield, CT. Any hints would be great! Thanks! See Less

I speculated her father to be Isaiah Bearse 1752-1805, of Cornwall, Litchfield, CT, with her brother being Chancellor Bearse. Purely speculation on my part.

Nancy Ballew Hi Nancy, yes! That's mine as well. I guess any hints might have to come from Connecticut.

As I was responding to your other post, I looked into my Bearse connection, and came up with it through DNA.
