Hello in 1910 Lewis was 89 grandfather in the home of Solomon and Perlina
Marcum. Grant district Wayne County. Dunlow is the correct spelling for the
town in Wayne that you asked about. In 1870 Lewis is in the Lawrence County
KY census. I do not find him in the 1920 Wayne census nor on the death
certificates that are on line. He must have died before the date that they
have posted but after 1910. Debbie
