Originally called “The Forks”, Lyons was renamed by Charles Williamson, land agent for the Pultney Estate. Looking down on “The Forks”, he renamed the settlement Lyons because the junction of Ganargua Creek and the Canandaigua Outlet reminded him of the town of Lyon in France where the Rhone and Saone Rivers meet.
