Populist might be a better term for Lyon. He’s buried in an obscure rural cemetery near the KY State Prison above a town that was flooded for a lake at Eddyville.

Thanks, dj, I didn’t know Lyon left VT for KY. I don’t think the term “populist” was used until the 1880s or later. He was a VT U.S. House member.
