 You can use \stemUp \stemDown and \stemNeutral to go

 Similarly, \tieUp \tieDown and \tieNeutral

 Thanks to all for your quick help!

 I adjusted the voices so that the E naturals I
 intend to tie are in the same lilypond voice.  The tie
 now renders and correct notation results _however_ the
 problem I have now, is that direction of the stems that
 lilypond has chosen for each voice is _not_ the direction
 I wish.

 How does one override lilypond's stem directions for a
 particular note or voice.


 Also, though tie renders in the attached image, but I prefer
 the curve of the tie _below_ the E naturals, not _above_ as
 in the attached image.  Is there a way to force in which direction
 the tie is written?

 \stemDown \tieDown

Also for a single tie you can use ^ or _ (just like with a single slur
and articulations).

 You probably want to learn to create and name voices with
 \new Voice = second  and \context Voice = second :

 voices

Yes, i recommend that too. When you have explicit voices, you can set
their behaviour using \voiceOne, \voiceTwo etc.

What is the purpose of naming the voices? If I do

\new Voice { \voiceThree

... it's fairly obvious to the eye which voice it is, without the added typing 
of 

= third

... correct?

\voiceThree is about behaviour, it doesn't identify the voice (and you
need something to identify the voices for example to be able to tell
Lily change notehead shapes to triangles in voice blahblah, and
for some advanced engraving).
Voices change their behaviour in special circumstances. Consider this example:

\new Staff 
  \new Voice = blaa {
\voiceOne
c'' b' a' g' ~
\voiceTwo
g' e' f' c'
  }
  \new Voice = chocapic {
\voiceTwo
c' b e'2
\voiceOne
c''2 d''4 e''
  }


At the beginning voice blaa is the upper voice, but because of a tie
it becomes lower voice. chocapic also changes its behaviour.
(this example is a little contrived, but i think it illustrates the problem).

HTH,
Janek
