Hi Bobbie,
Yes, my Franklin K. Lyons was a brother of Margaret Jane Lyons who married James Ferguson. Franklin was b. 23 Nov. 1830 in Columbiana Co., OH. He married Elizabeth Trout, 5 Dec. 1850 in Greene Co., Ind. They had three children: Daniel G. Lyons, Elvira Lyons and William J. Lyons. Franklin d. ca. 1858 and Elizabeth died about 1856 so the children went to live with their Trout and Lyons grandparents.

What I am looking for is information on what genealogy package to purchase.
What would give me the most informtion? I have my Grandfather's family traced
back to 1777. I would like more detailed information on this family, but I also
need more information on my 1800s ties to Owen Co./Greene Co. Plus my son
is looking for his father's history and they don't even know thier
Grandfather's name! So any suggestions on what would be the most help?I have someone
wanting to purchase this for me as a x-mas present and will pay good money for it.
Thank you for any help.

I can't help you on your search for the records of the Switz City Methodist
Church other then to say my Greatgrand parents attended that church during the
time period indicated 1889---1917--(William Lawson Stephenson and family) Our
church record search met with negative results. The, the records, do have to
be somewhere don't they?
