==History==
The area now occupied by Lewis County was very sparsely occupied until the end of the 1700s. Although the land was already claimed by the colony of New York in its original grant, the land was clearly part of Iroquois territory until after the Revolutionary War, when the New York seized the lands from tribes that had supported the British. The lands were unsurveyed and remained unattractive to settlement until after the complex process of Macomb's Purchase of 1791 eventually put much of the land in the hands of John Brown.
In January 1997, much of the county was socked in a world record-breaking snowburst, with nearly of snow in just a 24-hour period.
