Hello Sharyn, Have you ascertained that it was your forebear (JAMES LYON) who died at Port Clinton in May, 1861? Did he marry and give the name GEORGE to a son? There is some useful data relating to the Lyons of Strabane (Camus and Leckpatrick parishes) on the website connected to this mailing list CTI https://www.cotyroneireland.com/ and I wonder if you have undertaken a preliminary investigation.
The following announcement is takes from the Londonderry Sentinel June 28 1861 [cid:[email protected]] Hoping to hear from you shortly, Len Swindley, Melbourne, Australia (volunteer transcriber and submitter of files to CTI https://www.cotyroneireland.com/ Sent from Mail<https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=550986> for Windows 10 ________________________________ From: CoTyroneList <[email protected]> on behalf of Sharyn Davis via CoTyroneList <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, July 4, 2019 4:56:48 AM To: [email protected] Cc: Sharyn Davis Subject: [CoTyroneMailingList] Lyon family of Strabane Good day, I am hoping someone will be able to help me gather information on the Lyon family of Strabane or surrounding areas. I found an article in the Belfast News-letter, dated Wednesday morning, July 3, 1861, it reads: Lyon- May 24, at Port Clinton, PA, aged 49 years, Mr. James Lyon. merchant, son of the late John Lyon of Strabane. I have reason to believe these men are my 3rd and 4th great grandfathers and would love to know more about my Irish heritage. If more information is needed please let me know and I will submit. Thank you, Sharyn Davis -- Sharyn S. Davis Tunkhannock High School Library Aide Co-Editor SMDPA Newsletter
