Quack Walker Lewis finally died on October 26, 1856 in Lowell, from "consumption," which was probably tuberculosis. Lewis, after his rejection by the LDS church, may have returned to the Episcopal Church, as the funeral and burial services were performed by St. Anne's Episcopal Church in Lowell. However, that may simply have been what Elizabeth Lovejoy Lewis had decided to do as his widow, since she had never left the Episcopal Church to begin with. Elizabeth also purchased a beautiful family lot in the private garden-style "Lowell Cemetery" and Walker, Elizabeth, and nine other members of the family are buried there.
