Hello..I note there has already been some communication re the correct birth
date. North America Family Histories details his father William Lewis was the first recorder of the town Farmington in 1645 , and in 1636 his mother would have been 13, and it is suggested that there was a daughter first, so it is
likely that 1646 is correct.
