III. 7. ELHANAN' LYON [Peter,' Peter1] was born in Dorchester, Mass., May 4, 1690, baptized 11, 5 mo., 1690 (D. Chh.) and died in Stoughton Oct . 30, 1745 (St). He married first, Feb. 19, 1712, Mary Rodman (D) and second Sept . 24, 1713, Meredith, daughter of Robert and Mary Wyatt . She died Aug. 11, 1731 (St). Elhanan was reared in Stoughton, but m. both his wives in Dorchester. He inherited his father's assertive disposition and disinclination to yield submissively to the rights of the ministry of the day. Though both he and Meredith were received March 25, 1721-2 (c. chh.), by some he was called "ye great troubler of ye church," and in fine he was expelled therefrom in 1745 for controversy with the minister, the Reverend Mr. Morse. It is said that when Elhanan died shortly after, the reverend gentleman heaved a sigh of relief rather than of regret. Administration on the estate of Elhanan Lyon, late of Stoughton, bricklayer, deceased, was granted to his son Enoch, July 1, 1746. Inventory by John Shepard, Moses GUI and Charles Wentworth, July 11, 1746. Real estate, ?266; total ?341? 14s.? 6d.
