   LEWIS STOVER lawyer, 522 Walnut street, Philadelphia, is 
a son of Jacob, brother of Henry, who was the father of 
Jacob Stover, before mentioned. The father of Lewis was a 
farmer in Nockamixon township, where he lived all of his 
life after his marriage, dying about fifteen years ago. His 
wife was Sarah, daughter of Jacob Treichler, of Springfield 
township. She died several years after her husband. They had 
seven children, of whom four now survive: Owen, who lives on 
the home farm; Albert, engaged in lumber business at 
Kintnersville; Clara, who lives with her brother Owen; and 
Lewis, who was born October 13, 1835. He finished his 
education at Princeton college, N. J., and studied law in 
Philadelphia, graduating from the law department of the 
Pennsylvania university, and since then has been 
continuously engaged in practice in Philadelphia. He engages 
in all branches of civil practice, but gives especial 
attention to the real estate department of law. He has a 
good reputation among the legal fraternity of the city.
