Elizabeth Esther Teare, who Married Mark Crellin, was the younger sister of my Great Grandfather Joseph Benjamin Teare. He left the IOM and was an iron ore miner in Ishpeming, Michigan as were his older brothers Thomas and Ambrose. Thomas died in a mine accident and his wife - Emily Cain - and children moved to Canada. Ambrose also went to Canada with his wife from America - Annie Peterson. After she died in Canada, he remarried Foxdale girl Eleanor Elizabeth Christian, both are buried in Canada.

My Grandfather Robert Edward Teare was born in Ishpeming. My GGfather Joseph moved from Ishpeming to Minnesota where my father was born, I was born in Philadelphia.

The Mark Crellin I referenced was born in Patrick Parish in 1878 and died in Canada 1956, the son of Philip Henry Crellin (1846-1902) and Eleanor Margaret "Maggie" Cannell (per Brian Lawson's birth index) or Kermode (per IGI extracted marriage record) (1851-1910). Lewis Alfred Crellin (1872-1902) was the younger brother of Mark, who married Selina Teare (1877-1910), first cousin to Elizabeth Esther Teare. Selina was the oldest daughter of John Teare and Mary Jane Callister. (Oldest child William Frederick Teare died 1878 before 2nd birthday). Lily (1888-1969) and Emma (1880-1969) were younger sisters of Selina. Other children were William Henry (1882-1918), Cecily Clara (1884-1965) and Catherine Anna "Katie" (1889-1908). The 1911 Census states John and Mary Jane had 8 children with 4 still living which means I am missing one child.

I do not have any info on your Lewis or his parents but figure there must be a connection. My best guess is that Lewis Victor is the child of Lewis Alfred Crellin and Selina Teare. If so, that would explain living with Lily and Emma because both of his parents would have died by 1911 and his paternal grandparents as well.
