Hyde family - Manchester area

I was born in Heswall, Cheshire. My parents were Leslie Hyde (of Barnsley, Yorkshire) and mother Barbara (nee Taylor) of Heswall. The Hyde branch did originate in Yorkshire with my uncle Reuben still living in Great Houghton. My family migrated to Australia in 1951 and my both parents are now deceased. My maternal grandmother was Lucy Mabel Taylor (nee Goodall) born 7th August, 1896 and lived in Heswall. It may help but I don't recall any part of our family coming from Manchester. Hyde is a popular name and my cousin Rodger Hyde (first son of Reuben)believes that previous generations of the Hyde's of Yorkshire were quite well to do..cheers, Jenny.
