Theophilus Lyon Son of Elhanan Lyon Jun'r & Hannah his wife was Born April ye first * *.
[Note: apparently the year is unreadable. Records appear chronological, preceded by a date 6 Jan 1741/42 and followed by a date 26 Mar 1745, so this could be 1 Apr 1742 through 1 Apr 1744 to follow the pattern. Hopkinton VRS give the death of Capt. Theophilus Lyon in Apr 1824, age 80, suggesting the year is 1744. Reported by Source:Lyons, A. B. Lyon Memorial : Massachusetts Families, p. 338, as 1 Apr 1745, but gives no justification.]
