Fedor Fedorovich Levisa (Russian: Фёдор Фёдорович Левиз; German: Friedrich von Löwis of Menar) (6 September 1767, Haapsalu - 16 April 1824) was a Russian lieutenant general of the Napoleonic Wars. His family had originally had the surname Lewis before migrating from Scotland to the Baltic in 1630 - by the time of Fedor's birth, it had become a noble family and settled in Livonia.
