I have never researched the Pyron family prior to their move to North Carolina other than look in various histories from Virginia. However, what information I have came from Mr. Kermit Stell's work. Most of his came from the Vestry Book of St. Paul's Parish, Hanover County, Va (1706 -1786). Also check early Land Grants of Virginia. Patent #6 (1666-1676) reel 6, page 588, a patent of 345 acres in New Kent County, Va to Mary Pyrant. This probably relates to a Mary who married a Pyrant. See if there is a colonial map of Hanover County, Virginia which lists land holders by name on their acreage. I have one from Henrico County, Va which dates to about 1640 listing the land owners with names where the land was positioned. This wont give a census record, but it will tell you something about the family. MBush
