John Lyon (c. 1511–1592) was a yeoman farmer and benefactor who endowed Harrow School, England founded in 1572.
Lyon was an educated man who lived at Harrow-on-the-Hill, now in North West London; as a wealthy farmer, he was able to endow Harrow School, and this led to the foundation of The John Lyon School. He also established a trust for the maintenance of Harrow Roadand Edgware Road. Since these roads are now owned and maintained by the local council, the income from his estate is controlled by John Lyon's Charity[1] which gives grants to benefit young people in nine London boroughs: Barnet, Brent, Camden, Ealing, Hammersmith & Fulham, Kensington & Chelsea, Harrow, Hammersmith & Fulham and the Cities of London and Westminster. Grants are awarded to registered charities and state schools.
John Lyon lived at Preston in the Tudor era when it was "...a hamlet in the parish of Harrow-on-the-Hill" and St Mary's Church, Harrow preserves monumental brasses of him and his widow, Joan Lyon.
