General Notes: Husband - [Ancestor] Lyle


The Lyle family is of Norman extraction, the original ancestor, Robert De Insula, from which the name Lyle has evolved, coming to England in the train of William the Conqueror. For bravery he was rewarded with large possessions in Wales. The family branched into Scotland and later, in the days of James Stuart, were established in Ireland and their enterprise eventually led them across the Atlantic Ocean. Not only did men of this name and family participate in the American Revolution, but it furnished the ancestry of six of the presidents of the United States, and "Stonewall" Jackson and Robert E. Lee were also of this family.
