Here you'll find the official Lyon County viewer and its search box, what the titleholder and mailing fields really say, and how the recorded deed confirms the name.
How to use the Lyon County land owner map
Start the Lyon County land owner map on the Lyon County Beacon site and paste a parcel number if a Lyon County tax bill lists one, or zoom in and click a tract directly.

The Lyon County parcel layer display the titleholder as of the last roll, so a recent sale near Larchwood may not appear yet.
