From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

LEWISVILLE, a city in section 4 of Antrim, platted by the Interstate Land Company, May 3, 1899, and incorporated in 1902, was named in honor of Richard, James, and Nelson Lewis, nearby farmers, whose father, Thomas Lewis, a native of Ireland, came here from Ontario, Canada, in 1869, taking a homestead claim that included the site of this village. Richard Lewis was its first postmaster, and James Lewis was president of its Merchants' State Bank. John S. Tilney of New York owned several thousand acres of virgin land, called Tilney Farms, along the railroad right-of-way, which was undeveloped until 1900, when the acreage was divided into half-section units and rented. The post office began in 1899; it had a station of the Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis and Omaha Railroad.
