General Notes
James was from Liverpool when he married Bridget, so this is where he may be from. However, there are other family ties to Neston and it seems likely he is closely related to Joseph Lewis (1796-1878), both Coal Miners with families in Neston. Both families moved to live in Whiston (near Prescot), Lancashire.
James was killed in a mining accident. He died as a result of falling to the bottom of a coal pit as Ness, Neston when he fell out of a basket to the bottom while descending into the pit.
In 1851, his Wife and three children were at Ness, Cheshire
Bridget Lewis moved to Rainford, to be with her daugter Elizabeth, where she died in 1860.
James and Bridget were married in a religious ceremony on June 11th, 1821 at St. Peter (Liverpool).4
