General Notes: Husband - Hon. Jeremiah Lyons

---

He was educated at the Marklesville Academy, Perry County, Pennsylvania. He became a student-at-law under Edmund S. Doty, Esq., of Mifflintown, and was admitted to the bar December 3, 1863. He practiced in Mifflintown until elected to the bench, and his practice was very extensive: he was connected with every important case that arose for many years. His reputation led to his election as Judge of the Forty-first Judicial District of Pennsylvania, in November, 1891. Judge Lyons was a stockholder in the Mifflintown and Patterson Water Company; also in the First National Bank of Mifflintown, which he helped to organize, and of which he was the first president, continuing in office until his election to the judicial bench. He was a member of Union Lodge, No. 324, F. and A. M. He adhered to the Republican party, and in 1876 was a member of the Electoral College. He was an active member of the Presbyterian church, serving his congregation as trustee.
