The Descendents of Brunson
Lorenza Lewis and Sarah Frances Taylor |
| Brunson Lewis was quite a character. Apparently
from a fairly wealthy family, Brunson chose to walk on the "wild
side," and became rather infamous in central Florida as
a reknown hell-raiser and downright "bad dude." But,
he seemed to have repented in his old age and even began preaching
later in life. Click HERE

to see an oral history of Brunson Lewis. It is "highly probable"
that Brunson is the son of William Lewis because of land transaction
records in Darlington County leans in this direction. |
