The LEWIS/CADORETTE FAMILY, Documenting a Family History.
Manuel Dutra Lewis (1873-1968) and his wife Clara Silveira Furtado (1886-1923) were born in Fayal, the Azores. They met in Jamestown and were married here in 1906. They had two daughters. Mary (1907-1970) married George H. Cadorette at St. Mark Church on July 2, 1938. Her sister Clara (1908-1997) taught in the Jamestown School from the mid-1930s until her retirement at the end of the 1954-55 school year. The exhibit has pictures and documents tracing the family’s history in Jamestown.
