This is not a surprise, since your files are encoded in latin1, but
there is no \usepackage[latin1]{inputenc} in there. What latex engine do
you use?
You can pass the option "-e latin1" to tex2lyx in this case.
I understand this situation may be annoying, but I have no better idea
at hand. One possibility would be to take latin1 instead of utf8 as
default encoding, but I am not sure it would help.
What is not good IMO is that all these encoding errors just kill the
stream, whereas they should output a '?' (for example).
