  • I have not been researching my Hyde ancesters for long and have only recently found this website. I really would like to obtain a copy of “A Genealogical Record and History of the Hyde Family in Stoke Bliss, Hereford, and Worcester, England” By Nora Dalia Lempicki (my mother was descended from the Stoke Bliss branch of the family), or does anyone have a copy that they could copy – at my expense – if it’s not too big?
    I have records back to the 1700s so far and am happy to help anyone interested, from my side of the Atlantic.

  • Dear Hydes

    I am a little bit confused. On your website, when I look at old book titles on my iPhone; I see that you have listed ( Pioneer Days, the story of an adventurous and active life. By Charles Leavitt Hyde, latest reprint 2010. This book is still available on Amazon.com and is a fascinating read to say the least. Charles Levitt Hyde of Pierre South Dakota was my great-grandfather and his autobiography is noteworthy for multiple reasons. He lists small biographies of my grandfather Charles Lee Hyde, my aunt Marjorie Hyde and my father Richard Hyde, PhD.

    My confusion arises when I pulled up this portion of the website on my home computer. That book was not listed?

    There is another book by Charles Leavitt Hyde entitled “The descendents of Andrew Hyde of Lenox Massachusetts” (sixth in descent from William Hyde of Norwich, Connecticut). Including the descendents of Rebecca Hyde Aye of Morrow County, Ohio. by Edith Drake Hyde. Published by Edward Brothers, Inc. Ann Arbor Michigan 1937. Forward of the book lists the following “This part of the genealogy of the Hyde family is an attempt to continue to today the line of descent from the place where it is dropped in the Hyde genealogy by Reuben Hyde Walworth to the present-day descendents. The last of that line as given by Walworth is Andrew Hyde who was born in 1757 at Norwich Connecticut and who settled in Lenox Massachusetts.

    The guide for this book has been a chart made for his family (about 1884) by James Franklin Hyde of Lincoln Illinois. On this chart the male and female lines are both carried out and for that and for other reasons, the chart is here in reproduced. “James Franklin Hyde must’ve been in correspondence with all of them, but I (Edith Drake Hyde) have been unable to contact any descendents of Zebadiah Hyde”. The records for that branch of the family are taken from the chart and supplemented whenever it has been possible. That this record is not complete is fully recognized by the author but because the facts that are known to one generation are so quickly forgotten by another, this book is published to deserve what we know about our Hydes.

    I have a copy of this book, it is well documented. The index of that book is rather extensive with an estimated 200 records of Hyde family members. Upon request I would be delighted to look up any specific names and make a PDF file of the notes regarding those individuals and email it to anyone that wants it.

    If one were to actually read Pioneer Days, it becomes evident why a man like Charles Leavitt Hyde would fund and publish a Hyde genealogy that extends from Walton’s excellent Hyde genealogy and attempt to link those individuals to present day descendents of William Hyde of Norwich Connecticut(as of 1937.)

    Please let me know if this information is Helpful.

    Warm Regards

    Scott Hyde

  • I’m looking for Edith Drake Hyde’s Drake Historian Family book. If you can please help I would really appreciate the help. Thank you,
    Nancy Kay Drake

    • Hi Nancy

      You are not looking for the Hyde Genealogy that Edith Drake Hyde did for Charles L. Hyde, of Pierre South Dakota, Is this correct ?? I think Ann Pulled that document up or I mean published a link to same. AMAZING WORK ANN !!! I have a copy of that Hyde genealogy (The Descendents of Andrew Hyde of Lenox, Massachusetts, Sixth in descent from William Hyde of Norwich CT. which was funded by Charles Leavitt Hyde. He was my Great Grand Father. She extended the two volume set of the descendents of Willy Hyde of Norwich CT. done by Ruben Hyde Walworth from where it stopped up to include the family of Chas Leavitt Hyde, I think that is correct ??
