Robert DYON of Laceby, very near Grimsby, is mentioned in the Peace Sessions for 1381. (Records of Some Sessions of the Peace in Lincolnshire, quoted in Women in England, P.J.P. Goldberg 1995) There is a further reference in the 14th century Placita Antiqua to John Dyon’s manors at Laceby. In 1391 Richard DYON was called before the King’s Bench regarding misdemeanors around Grimbsy so the family was clearly well established in north Lincolnshire by the late 1300s, and probably earlier, either at the time of the Conquest or perhaps later at the time of the Hundred Years war.
