Unknown formation date.

1893: Lerryn String Band and the Fowey Town Band … (21 September 1893 – Royal Cornwall Gazette)

1893: The Fowey Town Band was supplemented by the admirable String Band from Lerryn. (28 September 1893 – Royal Cornwall Gazette)

1919: Lerryn Brass Band played at the Peace Celebrations. (John Brush)

No other engagements found so this could be a band formed just for that event. (John Brush)
