- The Washingtons and Their Homes by John W. Wayland
Colonel Lewis William Washington's father, George Corbin Washington, was descended from two of General Washington's brothers. His father was William Augustine, son of Augustine II, the General's half-brother; his mother was Jane Washington, daughter of John Augustine, the General's full brothers.
Mrs. Ella M. Basssett Washington, the second wife of Colonel Lewis W. Washington, made her will, writing it with her own hand, on November 20, 1880, leaving everything to her son (then her only child), William De Hertburn Washington. She probably spent her last years with him in New York. She died in New York, January 17, 1898. Her will was proved at Charles Town on February 7, 1898, by the oaths of Laura L. Mitchell and L. Nevelle Mitchell.
