Ezra Lewis mentioned in his 1880 Last Will that he held land in Franklin Cty, Iowa. He died in 1882 and his Ohio will did not cover the disposal of that land. Trying to learn what the land holdings were and if other Lewis family members, (brothers or sisters) may have been residing there. Pretty sure that Ezra had no sons/daughters to claim the land.Ezra's father was Samuel Lewis. I suspect the holdings would have been less than 100 acres based upon land the family had held in Connecticut and Ohio.
Thanks for any help.
