Here is a Francis Lewis signed letter we have sold in the past:

Signer Francis Lewis Autograph Document Signed 1772

Autograph document signed by Francis Lewis, New York patriot and signer of the Declaration of Independence dated 5 August 1772. Lewis, Welsh by birth, became active in politics when he emigrated to New York. As a New York representative to the Second Continental Congress, Lewis signed the Declaration of Independence and also signed the Articles of Confederation, the first working constitution for the new nation. His loyalty to the American cause cost him his home, which was destroyed by the British. His wife was imprisoned for a time and may have died prematurely as a result. In this document, Lewis acknowledges receiving 30 pounds and 11 pence from “Wm. Thomas — Gardener”. He signs: “Fran. Lewis & Son”. Receipt is laid down to a card measuring 6.75″ x 1.75″. Minor paper loss and toning not affecting signature, else very good condition. One of the rarest and increasingly difficult Declaration Signers to obtain. Sold for $5,500.
