This is a reply to Steve Hyde: I tried to reply to the message board, but ancestry is not cooperating this morning. Have you checked the book History and Genealogy of Ancient Windsor? Windsor is not far from Southwick and Granville, MA. Also, the town of Lee, Berkshire, Co., MA had several HYDE and HATCH families in the 1800s. This seemed to be connected to NY, also. I found one census listing for Lee that included a teacher with many students in his home from NY and they included many HYDEs. He was a HYDE. Researching: Pinney, Packard, Crawford, Piercy, See, Barden, Bradford, Etheridge, George, Hatch, Alden, Frost, White, Buckland, Hyde, Eastman. All in New England. I trace my family history so I will know who to blame.......
