Surnames: Hyde Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/4Yk.2ACIB/1108 Message Board Post: I have traced my Hyde family back to Volney Hyde (1833-1880). Volney came to Chateaugay, Franklin County, NY, in the 1850's. He married Sarah Ann Peck and had children Willard, Marietta, John, Harvey, Bert, and Newton. When Volney died in 1880 his son Harvey went to live with his uncle Elbridge (1837- ? ) and Grandmother Lurena/ Loamy Hyde (1808- ? ) of Brighton( Paul Smiths), Franklin County, NY. Elbridge owned his land in the area from 1868 to 1891. Between 1880 and 1891 Elbridge married a woman named Charlotte. After Elbridge sold his property I can't find any trace of him. Census records show Elbridge and Volney were born in Vermont and Lurena/ Loamy was born in New Hampshire. Can anyone help with family?
