Interesting indeed. Any idea how these families might have pronounced Lynaugh? I'd assume that Linai would be stressed on the second syllable, which the spelling seems to foreground ... but the only Lynaugh I've ever heard of was an Australian rugby player in the 90s whose name, as used by equally Australian sports broadcasters, came out as LINE-ah.
