Notes for Richard Hyde I
Note: Online genealogies commonly attribute this Richard Hyde as the son of Laurence Hyde, a barrister of Salisbury, Wiltshire, England (a count of public member trees at Ancestry.com on 23 Sep 2011 revealed 39 trees that show Richard Hyde’s parents as Laurence Hyde and Barbara Castilian (including my own!). However, the bio of Sir Laurence Hyde in the Oxford University alumni list enumerates all of the sons of Sir Laurence Hyde, but does not enumerate a son named Richard.

On 21 August 1635, Richard Hide, age 24, was listed in a group of 150 people to be transported to Virginia on the ship George, under the command of Mr. Jo. Severne.2973

There are a number of references to Richard Hide and one to Judah Hide in Surry County records, Surry County, Virginia, 1652-1684 By Eliza Timberlake Davis (Google eBooks) Some appear to refer to Richard Hyde II, son of the immigrant, since they postdate 1669.
