Clayton, I have noticed Pyrant as the spelling for Pyron in North Carolina in the 1700s quite often. It is probably spelled that way in Virginia and Tennessee and other places as well. This all seems to be the same name & either the census & court scribes spelled it different, or else there was no consistency of spelling in those days. I'd be glad to add you to the Pyron E-Mail list if you are interested.
