Notes for John Lyon:
Pat Gohlke: Lyon married Miss Burks, mother of James Lyon Burks. The children listed to this couple have not been proven to date. Exa Wolfe tells of the tradition that James Lyon Burks was the son of Miss Burks and his father was a Lyon. She also tells of the grandfather Burks wanting to adopt a male
and chose James because he looked so much like the Burks family. James' mother did not want him
to go alone, so she sent his brother William to go live with the grandfather. Miss Burks the mother of
James and William hated her given name so much and considered it to be common and forbade her
children to pass it down to their daughters as was the family tradition. It is not known whether she
married Mr. Lyon, nor has it been proved that there was a Mr. Lyon. However, Thomas Jefferson
Burks, son of James Lyon Burks, stated in 1909, that his father's real name was Lyon, and that the
mother's name was Burks.
