I have found more info. on my NY. Lyons family. Alexander H. Lyons b. 1806
and Eliza A. (Lyman) Lyons b. 1811. They had eight children (I had only
previously known of 7!). Alex and Eliza were both born in NY as were their
parents (whom I do not know yet).
The children were:
Adeline (Lyons) Gross b. 1/8/1834 in Charlotte, Chautauqua. Married William
Gross 1/9/1857.
Stephan Lyons b. 1839 Chautauqua
Harrison Lyons b. 1841 Chautauqua
George F. Lyons b. 1843 Chautauqua
Mary (Lyons) Maxfield b. 3/3/1845 Mayville, Chautauqua
John Lyons b. 1847
Permelia (Lyons) Cameron b. 1848
Lucinda Lyons b. ??
I think that Lucinda became Lucy Perkins and died in Wadena, MN. in 1884.
Her daughter Elvie lived with John J. Cameron and his wife Permelia (Lyons)
Cameron.
Most of the family, Alexander, Mary, Permelia and Adeline plus spouses lived
in Delano, MN. George and John Lyons lived in Idaho (I think the lived in
Rathdrum and Sandpoint as some of the Gross families lived there.)
Harrison lived in Verndale Wadena Co. MN. and Stephan lived in Wayzata MN.
I have ALL of their obits sent to me today. I am still trying to let it all
sink in. I will post the obits as time allows over the next few days.
Happy days,
Dean Cameron
