He received an initial 160 acres of land from the Armed Occupation Act in 1887 and settled in the area in 1889 now called Lantana which he named after the Lantana flower that once grew wild. Lyman was an enterprising business man who served as the first Postmaster for Lantana, operated a Lantana hotel from his home, owned an oyster business and a chain of namesake general stores. Other settlers in Lantana were black Bahamians who arrived to Lantana for employment in southern Florida in pineapple fields and on Henry Flagler's Florida East Coast Railway.
