The memoir class ignores LyX page sizes. You have to define them in
the  preamble.

Here is what I have put in the preamble to solve a similar problem:

\setstocksize{9in}{6in}
\settrimmedsize{9in}{6in}{*}
\settrims{0pt}{0pt}
\settypeblocksize{7.7in}{4.5in}{*}
\setulmarginsandblock{24mm}{20mm}{*}
\setheaderspaces{0.625in}{*}{*}
\setlrmargins{0.75in}{*}{*}
\setlength{\marginparwidth}{0.0in}
\setlength{\uppermargin}{0.7in} %Top margin including header
