I spent a few hours trying to research a connection, however, the closest thing appears to be South Carolina before 1850. Henry Hyde indicates that he was born there in approximately 1823. By the year 1846, he is in Coweta County, Georgia, and marries Martha Lyn or Marthalyn Benton. My family seems to stay there or at least the direct line... this would be their child James H. Hyde and his first daughter Alice Dorcie/Dorsie Hyde who married into my Dial line. I won't bother you with all the details, however, if you have an idea about Henry (possibly middle name Lunsden/Lumsden) Hyde in South Carolina we might have a connection... Thanks again for an action packed, informative, super message! deb-
