Hansford/Hyde Connection
Okay, Preliminary research over many weeks actually years, just started getting somewhere in the last few weeks.My great Granmother was born Sarah Hyde. Her parents were Anthong G. Hyde and Mary Magaret Pleasant Hyde who moved to Texas and left records in Nacodooches and Van Zandt counties and likely Smith as that is where my Sarah Married my great grandfather Robert Lewter.They spent most of their lives in and around Tyler, Smith Co. Texas.I tracked Anthony and a John H. Hydeto early 1800's Tennessee, and John H appears to be a John Hansford Hyde born in Virginia.Doing some more research the most likely suspects to be his parents are a John Hyde and a Lucy Hansford.There also appear to be earlier marriages between Hydes and Hansfords.I am having trouble finding any record of John Hansford Hydes links to John and Lucy Hyde.I have seen other records of their children but he is never listed, but I can understand that as I am too lazy to list siblings in my records, I know I should but I see gedcoms all the time where the people only list the child they are descended from and no other offspring of the previous generation.My ggg-grandfather John Hansford Hyde has to have been born to John and Lucy, they are the only likely candidates I am aware of in that time and place.His middle name is as telltale as a fingerprint as to whom his parents were....anybody know more on this than me caus until this summer I was never certain of whom my Sarah Hyde Lewters parents were.I found her with her parents recently on a Texas early census record. anybody got any ideas?Any cousins here?
