His son–also named John–and the younger John’s cousin William moved to Mecklenburg Co., NC, apparently in the 1780s."  John Pyron, born 1762, , listed above as a Revolutionary War soldier, was apparently a first cousin of William C. Pyron. So far I have not found details on his regiment, his pension application, if any, or anything else on his time in the war. The Pyrons I have encountered are all from either the John Pyron or William Pyron lines. William C. Pyron and some of his grown children lived in the Mint Hill area in eastern Mecklenburg county, N.C.. I have found three generation of them in the census of Mecklenburg county. My great-grandfather left Mecklenburg county before my grandfather was born in Mississippi in 1846. Monroe county, where William C. Pyron is buried, is the next county to the southeast of Mint Hill... I don't now about other Pyron lines, but my older sister Mary Pyron Bush on http://listsearches.rootsweb.com/.../1998-05/0896650935 says "Records of Levona Carney of San Jose, CA from the Vestry Book of St. Paul's Parrish, Hanover Co, Virginia, 1706 to 1786 found in Virginia State Library the following are listed. p 141. ordered that Thos.
