Ancestral Journeys: The Lyon and James Families

My family lived in lots of different places, and moved throughout lots of different

countries and cities, and even moved across the Atlantic Ocean for me to be where I am now in America.

My name is Max Lyon, and my last name, Lyon, is from my father. And my mother's

last name is James, before she took the last name Lyon, like my father. My father's last

name, Lyon, comes mainly from our ancestors that lived in Scotland,

but also comes from Ireland, England, and France, where we share our

name with many French cities. My mother's last name, James,

is a very common name for our ancestors in England and from the Welsh that live in Wales,
