Wife of Isaac Lewis. Mary Davis married Isaac Lewis (aka Lewes) b abt 1657 d 6 Apr 1691 in Malden, MA. This Isaac Lewis was the son of John Lewis and Mary Browne of Malden, MA. After Isaac died, Mary remarried Thomas Pratt. Mr. Pratt became the administrator of the estate of Mary's first husband Isaac Lewis. Thomas Pratt, administrator of the estate of Isaac Lewis, is mentioned in documents settling the estate of Isaac's father John in which the name of his father and siblings appear. This firmly establishes Isaac's parents as John and Mary Lewis of Malden, MA.

Therefore, the "Five Generation Stone" has errors in the first and second generation. William and Amey Lewis did have a son Isaac born in 15 Apr 1644 in Lynn, MA, however, their son Isaac was not the wife of Mary Davis nor the father of the Isaac Lewis, Jr shown in generation #3. There appears to be a 6 Apr 1693 death record for an Isaac Lewis in Boston, MA. This may be the death record of William and Amey's son Isaac who coincidently died two years to the day after Isaac Lewis of Malden, MA or it could be a transcription error of the death of Isaac Lewis of Malden, MA, which actually occurred two years earlier. Nothing else is definitively known of the Isaac Lewis born 1644.
