Hi,
My name is B Don Taylor and I got your address from the internet.
I am also interested in the Blizzard family.
My connection to the Blizzard family starts with Anne Blizzard who married John Fraser. Anne was born of Prince George's MD & John was born in Scotland.
Ann's father was Giles Blizzard born Abt 1665 of Prince George's and he married either Mary or Anne Eden born in P.G. MD.
Gyles Blizzazrd born abt 1613/23 of Warwickshire, England; died 17 May 1688 (WP), Charles MD. He married Mary Hester Evans 1627,, Charles MD
Gyles Blizzard parents were John Bizzard born abt 1587 in Ettington Warwick, England. He married Margery Rouse 21 Jun 1612, Long Complon, Warwick, England
Margery Rouse born abt 1591 Ellington Warwick, England. Her father is (probably) John Rouse.
I hope this information can tie to the information you have. It sounds like you have done a lot of research. I am happy to share what information I have with you and hope you feel the same. I don't like plowing the same ground twice.
Hope to hear from you.

Subject: Re: Winiford Thomas Lewis
Thank you for writing back. I can not say that I have actual and beyond a doubt, proof that Catherine was the daughter of Richard Edelen. What I do have is proof that she was not the daughter of Giles Blizzard. The information that I have is from Phyllis Cox a descendant of Thomas the brother of John Lewis who married Mary Ketcham. Phyllis lives in the area and has found records that are not recorded online. Giles and Thomas were business partners trading with the Indians and this is the reason that Thomas was given a lease to the land, but after the death of Giles there was a dispute over the land between his wife and daughter's and Thomas was never given the land that was given to him in the Will. Thomas then purchased the land next to land owned by Richard Edelen, land that was excavated in the 1900's having Indian trade relics on the property, estimated from the 1600's. In the 1600's this land could have been a part of Richard Edelen's property that he had Thomas taking care of for him. Again this can only be speculation as there are no records that far back for this property. The record that we do have is that Catherine was born in approximately 1667 and in 1672 Thomas Lues (Lewis) was enter as an indentured servant to Richard Edelen. He seems to have worked for the Edelen's until the mid 1680's when he married Catherine. My guess is that Richard Edelen had two objections to this marriage, first Thomas was not wealthy, he was an indentured servant, and second Thomas was not Catholic. Catherine was mentioned in her father's will, but without her married name and she was only mentioned and not given anything, all it says is that she was given personality, that means she was recognized as his child. If she was not married she would have been given a place to live. I have discussed this with descendants of Richard Edelen and they agree that this is a very good possibility for fact, but as I said there is no marriage record or Edelen records that prove this fact.
Phyllis Cox and another descendant of Thomas Lewis, that lived in Texas, were corresponding with Michael Cook. They were giving Michael the information about the difference between the two Lewis families in Prince George's Co. when Michael and the gentleman in Texas both died. Phyllis was not able to change any of the information on her own, so this was dropped. A fellow researcher of mine went to view the property called Battersea and found Phyllis. She gave him Winifred's Will, the records about the dispute over Giles land and the information about the two families. Fred is an older man and did not understand what she had given him. He sent me copies of all the info and after reading them over several times and researching all the records I realized what had happened. Because of the location and the common naming the two families got all mixed up. Phyllis said that anyone living there would know that John Lewis married to Elizabeth Houser (Horner) was a completely different family. They lived in the northern section of Prince George Co. near the Patuxent River, this area became Frederick Co. John was from England, not Wales. He had son's John, Thomas, Stephen, and Samuel.
Samuel stayed in the upper Prince George's Co. area and his three brother's moved to Stafford / Fairfax Co. To make matter's even more confusing. Richard's son Thomas also moved to the same area. It has taken a lot of records to get these two families separated. The record that jumped out at me to separate the John married to Elizabeth Houser died in April 1711 and John the son of Thomas and Catherine sold his Battersea land on Aug. 20, 1711. Dead men can not sign documents to sell land. John was given the smaller portion of the land called Battersea which gave me the impression that he was the youngest of the three son's of Thomas and Catherine. I have a fellow researcher that feels that I am wrong about this, but I found that after selling the land, John purchased land next to Daniel Thomas in Prince George's Co. and the fact that he died in 1748 leaving Winefred with five small children meant to me that he was an older man. He was probably born around 1690. Winefred was born in 1714. Richard had a son named John born in 1715 and my fellow researcher thinks that he was the husband of Winefred Lewis. I think he was to young and also he lived in Charles Co. near the Neck of Mattawomen Creek with his parents Richard and Jane.
I have lots of records on this family including portions of Michael Cook's book concerning this family and a book called "Lewis Patriarchs of Early Virginia and Maryland" by Robert Lewis.
