Albert Edward Lewis (January 20, 1877 - February 22, 1956) was an English first-class cricketer who played for Somerset.
An allrounder, Lewis was a middle to lower order batsman and right-arm fast-medium pace bowler. He scored 9 first class hundreds, his highest was an unbeaten 201 against Kent in 1909 after he'd made a duck in his first innings. Somerset followed on and Lewis's innings earned them a draw. With the ball he took over 500 wickets for Somerset and took his best innings bowling figures of 8 for 103 against Warwickshire in 1908, finishing the match with 14 wickets.
