Horse theif named Hyde
My father's family were all William or James Hyde and lived in South Wales since leaving Mallow, Cork in 1840's on the ship "Dodo" to Bristol.At the same time Hydes went west and the story is that one of them struck it rich and was sending money orders to the family in South Wales.One day the money stopped, inquieries were made and the "rich uncle" had been hung as a horse thief!
