(Research):A leading contender for this 2nd wife is Rosy Costin who married a James Kellum in 1819 There is a family story about the widow of James Kellum showing up at Lewis' doorstep in Baltimore with a young child, and asking for help. Lewis' wife Nancy said she could not live in their house, and that she would have to be put up somewhere else. This would have to have been between 1830 and 1848. William mentions in a letter to Lewis B. (1928) that Margaret Dutton was James' second wife.
