Hi Jeremy, I just found you posting as this is the first time that I have been on the Hyde Genforum.
You show a daughter to Samuel as Eliza.Do you have any other information on her besides her name?
I am very curious because I have a grandmother Eliza that I have not confirmed a maiden name on.There has been thoughts that her name may have been Lide, however, I found the baptismal record of her oldest daughter, Emma and her it had the Elizas' maiden name as Hyde.I was thinking that it could have been transcribed wrong....but this makes me wonder...anyway, I only have speculations and I am trying to follow up every direction so that I can try and confirm a maiden name and family.
It appears that her middle name may have been Jane and as this is Samuels' second wife, I thought it another possibility to look at.
From what the census record shows, she was 22 in 1860 thus establishing her birth year as approx. 1838.She was born in SC according to the census records.She married Randal Cross.She had children Emma, William and Simeon (my gggrandfather).There may have been other children I do not know.I also do not know when she died.
Thanks so much for your help,
Pam
