I have Lyons family from the city of Lyons, Oregon which they incorporated.
The names you list do not sound familiar to me, except I have come across
the Harrison name in my research. Sorry to say, I have not kept anything on
him, but I may have notes stashed away in the file somewhere that relate to
him.

I am researching James Currin Lyons, Emma Farnsworth Lyons, and their
children...as well as James Lyons brother, Henry Lyons. I have also found
an Edward Lyons. Does this name ring a bell with you. He was killed while
making the railroad...mudslide crushed him. I have included him in all my
research as he was working up in the Lyons, Oregon area at the time of his
death. But I haven't fit him into the family yet. James and Henry's
parents were Patrick and Eliz Curin Lyons.

Sincerely,
Angela
