At this point I have Seneca County Deeds Index references showing that he purchased property in 1833 and 1841 and that he sold property in 1835 and 1841. Later Illinois information suggest that he was born in Pennsylvania about 1809. I am desperate to find any information which might lead to his parents, siblings, or Pennsylvania birthplace. > Robert Lyon married ARZILLAH HALL at Covert in about 1832. The information that I have found so far indicates that she was the daughter of JOHN HALL and granddaughter of CALEB HALL. > Working from a distance sure is slow and I would greatly appreciate any help or advice from other list members. > Dave Burnett, Alberta, Canada >
