    In 1718 he was living on a tract of land along the border of Essex, and King and Queen counties, Virginia. On 21 June 1722 a suit brought against him by Thomas Waring was dismissed. About this time one of his Negro boys ran away and was taken up by Thomas Barker. In 1724 he served on a jury and also gave evidence for Nicholas Davis in suit against John Pickett. On 21 August 1728 judgment was granted against him in favor of Thomas Waring, Sheriff of Essex County.

    NOTE - this story has also been linked to his son:

    Joseph Collins of Essex County, planter, on 16-17 May 1737 sold to Nicholas Pampline a tract of 200 acres in Essex and King and Queen counties. He was then preparing to move to Spotsylvania County, where he had settled by 17 January 1738/39 when the Essex County Court ordered that Philip Gatewood pay him 495 pounds of tobacco for twice coming and returning seven miles from Spotsylvania County and for attending three days as an evidence for him against Thomas Johnson in a suit for assault
    and battery.

    Notes:

    ZACHARY LEWIS, I (LTD7-KCJ) was born 1673 in Breconshire, Wales. According to Lewises, Meriwethers and Their Kin, this family is from the landed Lewis family who owned estates Brecknock and Llangollen in Wales. Evidence comes from this family's descendants naming their Virginia estates accordingly:

    ?Zachary Lewis I and son John Lewis lived at Lewisville, King & Queen, VA.
    ?Zachary Lewis II lived at Bel-Air, Spotsylvania, VA.
    ?Col. Zachary Lewis III lived at Bel-Air, Spotsylvania, VA.
    ?John Lewis s/o Zachary Lewis III lived at Llangollen, Franklin, KY
    ?Dr. Richmond Lewis s/o Zachary Lewis III lived at Brecknock, Spotsylvania Co VA.

    According to grandson, Rev. Iverson Lewis, Zachary I and family emigrated in 1692 to Colonial Virginia, settling south of the Rappahannock River in King & Queen, VA. Zachary I is first documented in 1694 when he patented land adjacent to Christopher Lewis. [ Any Lewis relationship has yet to be determined.]

    "20 Apr 1694, Mr. Zachary LEWIS patented 500 acres in King & Queen Co VA Beg. near the Draggon Swamp; along land granted to Thomas CLAYBORNE, now belonging to Mr. Christopher LEWIS, &c. Granted to Domingo MADERES & James JOHNSON, 8 Apr 1668, deserted, & now granted by order, &c. Dorcas Lewis and Sarah Lewis were entered as headrights. (Land Books of Virginia Book 8, p. 318)"

    This land was located between Exol Swamp and Dragon Swamp at the headwaters of the Piankatank River near the boundary with Essex Co on the Middle Peninsula. He called his new home, "Lewisville". [Note: Christopher Lewis was probably a close cousin or even an uncle. Sarah and Dorcas Lewis listed as headright may have been his sisters.

    Zachary Lewis (LTD7-KCJ) and Mary Walker (LZL6-GPL) were married c. 1700 in King & Queen, VA. Mary was born about 1677 King and Queen, VA.

    23 October 1703. Zachary Lewis purchased 450 acres in King William County, Virginia. (Land Books of Virginia Book 9, p. 556.) Zachary Lewis I was a noted lawyer in early Colonial Virginia. And, his sons and grandsons were also.

    10 Mar. 1706 Zachary Lewis given Power of Attorney for his sister Sarah Shackelford: Power of Attorney--Sarah Shackelford to Mr. Zachary Lewis Sr. that he "appear for me at the Essex [Co.] Court and Relinquish my right of Dower of 150 Acres of Land which my husband Francis Shackelford sold to John Shackelford and you will oblige your loveing sister." Signed Sarah X Shackelford on 10 Mar 1706/07. Gloucester County.
    17 Jan. 1708 Zachary Lewis appointed Deputy Escheator General for Essex Co Va.

    15 May 1719 Essex Co VA Land Transaction. Joseph Anderson and Zachary Lewis are witnesses in South Farnham Parish to sale of land. (Essex County, Virginia, Records, 1717-1722, pages 63-66.)

    Zachary died after 1719 and is buried in the family plot at the family home. Contrary to custom, Zachary I left Lewisville to younger son John who married Sarah Iverson. (From the 1894 Lewis Convention held at Bel-Air in Spotsylvanina, VA, we learn that Zachary Lewis II left King & Queen county early, heading upriver to make his own fortune in the new lands of the west. Apparently, Zachary's sisters' families did the same.)

    1. ZACHARY LEWIS II was born 1 June 1702 in King and Queen, VA.. married, 9 Jan. 1725, probably in King and Queen, VA. Mary Waller b. 20 Jan. 1799 in Virginia. He died 20 Jan.1765 at his estate "Bel-Air" in Spotsylvania Co., VA.
