We know this because on the 1920 census of Bryan Cty., GA,his wife Laura is a widow.

Mary A. Lewis
Mary's husband is not with her in the 1880 census. I think this is the Mary (may) who married Wm. Riley Lewis but am not sure. She is living with daughter Ellen Gill in the 1880 census of Bryan Cty., Ga. and Eliza A. Shuman (12) ,Sarah Jane Shuman (7), and Horace W. Shuman (4). Also Wm. G. Gill (8 mos.), son of Ellen Gill is there but not the father Mr. Gill. Is he dead, what?
In Black Creek cemetery, there is a headstone (#575) with Mary Anna McKenzie Lewis on it but no dates.
