--
According to historian, Mary Allice Fontenot, on the night of September 27, 1819, a band of armed men forcibly entered Lyon's home, tied up Lyon, his wife and children, and threatened to take their lives if they resisted. The men spoke English and pretended to be officers of the government. The intruders ransacked the house and carried off the linen and wearing apparel of the family. Ten slaves were taken. An investigation found that the bandits were led by George Brown, one of Jean Lafitte's men. Captain J.H. Madison, commander of a United States schooner, the Lynx, found Lafitte at Galveston, Texas. Lafitte delivered the bandits to the authorities except for Brown, the leader, who Lafitte hung from a gallows.

PETITION BY THE ENGLISH INHABITANTS OF THE NATCHEZ AREA IN 1779
TO THE BRITISH

Sir
Natches January 17. 1779
TO HIS EXCELLENCY GOVERNOR CHESTER

We, His Majesty's Dutiful and Loyal Subjects, Inhabitants of the Natches, beg leave to acknowledge our sincere and hearty thanks for your Excellency's great care and attention to this District and the various measures from time to time adopted for the Defense thereof by which means our Enemies are, and have been, much awed by this part of the Country protected and defended and our property safely preserved and kept from such fate as hath been often devised and decreed against it. Permit us to assure your Excellency that our weak endeavors were ever exerted, never failing to assemble on all occasions when called upon by Colonel Hutchins, who on alarms hath often required our attendance, and the same Loyal Principles we hope will ever govern us to act with spirit in the future on such emergencies. You also have our thanks for appointing him to preside here, who is more likely than any other person yet offered to defend this District, to be useful in other respects and to yield a general satisfaction to our most virtuous inhabitants.

We do also most heartily thank the Honorable Colonel John Stuart, ESQ.. for the aid of his Loyal Refugees under Captain Jackson's command who have been very useful to us. And also for the Company under the command of Captain William Mcintosh,
lately arrived, and hope they will be of no less service. And as it is reported by Captain Mcintosh and William Bethune that Indians are to be sent here, we do most ardently beg and request that no such may ever appear amongst us under the name of a
defense, as most of us are too well acquainted with the Indians to put the least confidence in them. And as we conceive that would be as useless and burdensome at this time as those heretofore sent to the District. What more, therfore, can we expect of
them now than at that time can they answer any other purpose than to Destroy the province that ought to support and sustain this Post, and to keep us in bodily fear.

The Indians formerly sent here was a reason why many People and families left their Habitations. But another such visit forced upon us, we fear, will add to an unhappiness and too, probably to the Country's desolation. And we, a Loyal people, why then shall we be forced to leave our settlement and fly to a Despotick Dominion.

We are informed of a report in Pensacola, that the Inhabitants of this District whose cattle have been slaughtered for the support of the Troops and the Indians, were contented with the price of five dollars per hundred, which report we declare to be exceeding wrong and that we have always thought, and yet think it ought not to be less than six Dollars and a Quarter and hope that price will be made good to those Injured people whose Beeves have converted to the King's use at an under rate.

We beg leave to wish Your Excellency the Compliments of the season, with perfect health, length of days, long to preside and your Administration happy under the auspicious reign of our rightful Sovereign, inthroned on a Glorious Constitution; is the prayer of.

Sir Your most Devoted and Obedient Humble Servants:

To His Excellency Governor Chester

Notes:

They were in Pensacola Florida when their son, Gabriel was born.This is stated in record of marriage of Gabriel to Nancy Burleigh. GC Chv 1p 6.
Bapt. record of their son John said that John and Anne Ahart were of Georgia.

writeup found in Ancestry:
JOHN LYONS, SR., was the first Lyons ancestor of which we have record. He was born about 1757. John?s father may have been Samuel Lyons but there is no proof of this.

According to one family legend, the Lyons came from Ireland and Scotland. According to another they came to this country from Nova Scotia about the time of the American Revolution.

It is not known when the first Lyons reached Louisiana. Some members of the family believe that the Lyons first settled in Georgia or Tennessee. However, it is certain that John Lyons, Sr. was in Louisiana prior to 1801 for in that year he purchased some 6000 acres of land in what is now Vermilion and Acadia Parishes. The land is situated on both the North and South sides of Bayou Queue de Tortue.

John Lyons, Sr. was the father of at least seven children:
1.MICHAEL LYONS, born about 1777.
2.John Lyons, Jr.
3.Gabriel Lyons
4.Elizabeth Lyons
5.Samuel Lyons
6.William Lyons
7.David Lyons

John Lyons, Sr. married Nancy or Ana, Ahart. It is thought that all of John?s children were born of this marriage; however, Michael, the eldest child, might have been by a previous marriage.

According to the Lyons? Family Bible, Nancy Ahart Lyons died on June 1, 1809, and John Lyons, Sr. died on August 23, 1835. He died at his home place on Bayou Queue de Tortue.

Notes:

A careful look at the list below will show the research on this line needs some work; the dates do not fit together very well. If you have additional info please share it!

There are 2 children John M Lyons listed and I initially thought they were probably the same person but the dates of spouses don\\\'t align.

John M Lyons is born in 1783 in GA
- He marries Marie Hayes 27 Oct 1800 in Opelousas and is listed as a Protestant
- Marie Hayes dies 17 May 1826
- yet the record shows they have a son Aborn born in 1829 (3 years after she died)
- He marries Rachael Marie Forman 30 Mar 1804, according to the notes in a Catholic church
- Rachel and he have a son David Lyons born in 1798 (5 years before the wedding)
- and their son John L Lyons III is born 5 Jul 1804 (4 months after the wedding)
- Rachel and he divorce(!) 21 May 1824
- He marries Rebecca Gilchrest 19 Jun 1826 (1 month after Marie dies and 2 years after the divorce from Rachel).
