JAMES LYON married Martha SIDEBOTHAM 1777 Manchester

I know, from a family bible, that the parents of my 3G grandmother (Alice Lyon 1785-1833) were James Lyon and Martha Sidebotham, who married in Manchester 7 sep 1777.
Can anyone identify either of these two? I found a few possibilities in the IGI as well as 9 other children who appear to have the same parents.
The most likely James Lyon was born 10 Feb 1746 in Rochdale, parents John Lyon and Hannah [James named his 4th son John and third daughter Hanna]. The alternative would be one christened 1754 Manchester, son of James Lyon [first son also named James] BUT he would have been 13 at marriage, so not very likely!
As for Martha, she could be the one christened 1745 Gorton Manchester, daughter of Thomas Sidebotham and Mary. [2nd son named Thomas and eldest daughter Mary].
That's probably enough for anyone to figure out whether they know either of these two!
