... de faro, Lewis se acredita con salvar entre 13 y 25 personas, incluyendo a los soldados que estaban estacionados en Fort Adams en Newport, Rhode Island. Su familia había tomado el control del faro Lime Rock en 1853. Su padre, el capitán Hosea Lewis, sufrió un derrame cerebral apenas seis meses después de tomar control del faro. Como resultado, la madre de Lewis, Zorada, se hizo cargo del funcionamiento del faro. En 1879, Lewis fue nombrada como la encargado del faro después de ser entrenada por su madre.
