    "ORIGIN: Unknown.
    MIGRATION: 1635 on the Hopewell (on 11 September 1635, 'W[illia]m Lyon' aged 14, was enrolled at London as a passenger for New England on the Hopewell [Hotten 130]). …

    "Comments: The editors of the Lyon Memorial state that 'There appears to be no reason to question the conclusion reached by Albert Welles (American Family Antiquity) that this was the William Lyon who was baptized at Heston, now part of the city of London, Dec. 23, 1620, the youngest son of William and Anne (Carter) Lyon of Heston' [Lyon Memorial 24]. On the contrary, aside from the correct name and age, there is no particular reason to believe that this baptism does apply to this immigrant, although it is not impossible."
