Owned as many as fifteen slaves.

By 1818 decided to become a Quaker. Sold his slaves to the Society of Friends for "love and affection" so that the Society might set them free.

Lewis was then received into the Cane Creek Quaker Meeting on 6 February 1819. He remained a faithful member until he died.

Lewis and family are in Quaker records: Spring Monthly Meeting, Orange County, NC and Cane Creek Monthly Meeting.
