lea connection in allegheny county pennsylvania

I am looking for the origin of my grandfather's first name. He was christened Lea Baker Perrin, and I had assumed that this was a bad joke (named after the Worcestershire sauce) until I found numerous graves for the Lea family in Chartiers cemetery when I was researching his home in Crafton recently.

Most likely the relationship is through Lea's mother, Jennie Maxwell, who was the daughter of Thomas Maxwell and Jane, born according to the census around 1821-23. She was born in Pennsylvania, as was Thomas, and they married before 1850.

Does anyone have a connection?
