From Isobel's research:
He was known as The Squire, a courtesy title given by his neighbors. John was a highly respected man who financially and physically built the Lewis School. He also gave land and materials for the Perry Presbyterian Church in Perry Township. He had
arthritis.
not satisified with 5 months of public schooling, he hired a teacher for his and other children in the neighborhood for 3 more months every year. This was called a select school, named Lewis Academy. As each member of the family turned 17, he or she
would take the teacher's exam and teach school for a time. 8 of the 10 children were schoolteachers. Of the 5 brothers, 2 became farmers, one a businessman, and 2 were medical missionaries in china. of the 5 daughters, 2 married, one went to china as
a nurse and one as a doctor, one lived at home. the 3 youngest never married. 10 of his 14 children lived to adults, 4 lived past 90.
OBITUARIES LEWIS--Sept. 6, 1917, at his home in Perry township, Jefferson county, Mr. John H. Lewis, in his 89th year.
Mr. Lewis was a farmer--a very successful one--and ended his days on the
farm on which he began them. He was the son of Stephen Lewis, one of the
pioneers of Jefferson County. His long life in the community told for good
in every way. As a citizen he was known throughout the country for his
integrity and upstanding character. He was every inch a man. The right had
in him a strong friend and moral reform an earnest advocate. He was
temperate and temperance through and through. The force of his character was
felt and acknowledged wherever he was known.
Mr. Lewis united with the Perry Presbyterian church in 1853. His father
had been an elder in the church from it's organization in 1836 until his
death in 1849. Shortly after he entered the church he was made an elder and
served in that capacity with wisdom and fidelity until death closed his long
term of 62 years. It was an unknown thing for him to be absent from Sabbath
school or the public worship in the church. To these services he led his
family and the results justified his fidelity. Every one of his nine living
children has a place in the church and serve it well. The Presbyterian
Banner had a place in the home. At the time of his death he was one of the
oldest, if not the oldest, subscriber to it. For 64 years he had taken it
himself, and in his father's home he had read it from boyhood. These things
tell of his fatherhood. The children rise up and call him blessed.
Mr. Lewis was married to Miss Isabel Dilts, a daughter of Judge Peter
Dilts, of Indiana County. She entered the church with her husband shortly
after their marriage and was a real helpmate in home and church as long as
physical health gave the power. She passed to her rest about a year ago. To
Mr. & Mrs. Lewis were born twelve children, nine of whom still live worthily:
Harry Lewis and Hon. L. M. Lewis of Young Township, Jefferson county, Pa.,
Mrs. Dillie Trezona, of Grove City, John D., of Lewis, Perry Township,
Jefferson county, Pa., Charles Lewis, M. D., in charge of Paoting-fu
Missionary Hospital, China: Stephen C. Lewis, M. D., in charge of the
Missionary Hospital in Chengchow, China: Miss Elizabeth F. Lewis M. D., in
Missionary Hospital at Shunte-fu, China, and Carrie Bell Lewis, a trained
nurse in China. Dr. Steve and Carrie Bell were at home on furlough at the
time of their father's death. Mr. Lewis has 21 grand-children and 11
great-grandchildren, one sister, Mrs. Lydia Neal of Punxsutawney, and one
brother, S. S. Lewis of San Diego, Cal., still live. Mr. Lewis' record is a
great one and well merited. J. S. H.
(This clipping did not have a paper name or date. I think it probably was a
Presbyterian church paper.)
Dr. William James McKnight, published in 1917 by J.H. Beers & Company,
Chicago, page 473:
John H. Lewis, who is familiarly known as Squire Lewis, is one of the honored
and influential citizens of his native county. He was born on the fine old
homestead farm upon which he now resides, in Perry township, March 16, 1829,
and was reared under the conditions and influences that marked the early
pioneer epoch in the history of Jefferson county. In his boyhood the splendid
farm which is still his home was represented principally by a few
stump-covered fields in the midst of the forest. In the old-time subscription schools he gained his early education, and in his venerable years he delights
to recall to mind the old log schoolhouse, with puncheon floor, slab benches
and other rude equipment. After the death of his father he remained at the
old homestead, gave himself earnestly to the development and cultivation of
the farm and unselfishly worked to provide for his widowed mother and the
younger children. He finally purchased the interests of the other heirs and
came into sole ownership of the property, of which he now retains 126 acres.
Success attended his efforts with the fleeting years, and at one time his
landed estate comprised fully six hundred acres. Though he has disposed of
the major part of his land and is one of the most venerable pioneer citizens
of the county, he is still hale and vigorous and takes pleasure in
maintaining his claims to still continued activity in connection with agricultural industry. He is a stalwart in the camp of the Republican party,
has been influential in public affairs in his native county, and served for a
number of years in the office of justice of the peace, besides having held
for one term the office of township assessor and that of school director for
a number of terms. He is now the oldest man in Perry township, and is also
one of the most venerable of the native sons of Jefferson county, where his
circle of friends is limited only by that of his acquaintances. He is a
zealous and beloved member of the Perry Presbyterian Church, of which his
father was a charter member, and he himself has given long and effective
service as a trustee and also as an elder of this fine old church
organization. His wife belonged to that church from the time of its
organization until her death.
As a young man John H. Lewis wedded Isabella Dilts, a daughter of Peter and
Sarah (Kinter) Dilts, certain members of the family retaining the original
orthography of the patronymic, Diltz. She died Oct. 1, 1916, aged
eighty-seven years, nine months. The children of John H. and Isabella Lewis
were fourteen in number, and we have the following interesting data
concerning them:
Anna Amanda, deceased, was the wife of Spicer Titus. Sarah Emma, born Nov.
12, 1854, Laura Bell, born March 3, 1856, and Martha Jane, born Sept. 8,
1857, all died young. Harry was the next in order of birth. Dilla Ruth, who
was born Sept. 24, 1860, is the widow of James Trezona, and she resides at
Grove City, Mercer county. Alonzo, born Oct. 8, 1861, died when six months
old. Linus Mead, born Jan. 26, 1863, is one of the representative farmers of
Young township and is individually mentioned on other pages of this work.
John Dilts, born Aug. 14, 1864, resides at Punxsutawney, this county. Dr.
Charles Lewis, born Nov. 3, 1865, was graduated from Washington and Jefferson
College, at Washington, Pa., and from the medical department of the University of Pennsylvania, at Philadelphia, and he is now a medical missionary in China, under the auspices of the Presbyterian Church. Nora M., who was born June 13, 1868, remains
with her venerable father. Dr. Stephen Lewis, born Nov. 2, 1870, was graduated from Grove City College and the medical department of the University of Pennsylvania, and is now an earnest worker as a medical missionary in China. Carrie Bell, born Oct.
17, 1872, was graduated as a trained nurse from the training school maintained in connection with the Lackawanna Hospital at Scranton, Pa., and is now stationed in China in the work of her profession, effectively supplementing the labors of her two
brothers. Elizabeth Fair, born Feb. 9, 1874, was graduated from Grove City College and then entered the Women Medical College in the city of Philadelphia, in which she completed the prescribed curriculum and from which she received the degree of doctor
of medicine; she now has charge of a leading hospital in China. This is truly a remarkable family, especially in that two of the sons and two of the daughters have unselfishly severed the ties that bound them to home and native land and are giving
their able services in the humane missions in far distant China.
