Antrim / Hyde / Miller and Hyde / Brown in Antrim around 1790 to 1840
« on: Sunday 05 January 14 04:30 GMT (UK)  »
I have traced my Hyde roots back to around 1790 in Northern Ireland.  James Hyde and Mary M. Brown had at least one son William Hyde, born in 1818.  He died in 1879-08-23 in Ontario Canada.  So the first thing I'm looking for is any more information on James Hyde and Mary M. Brown.  James Hyde born around 1790, and married to Mary M. Brown around 1810...unsure his wife's information is true but that's all I have for now.

The other information I'm looking for is on William Hyde's wife's side.  William Hyde married Eliza Miller in 1838 (estimated).  It appears they were married in Northern Ireland before coming to Canada.  I have fairly reliable information that Eliza Miller was born 1820-08-25 in Antrim, Ireland.    I'm looking for more information on Eliza, her siblings, her parents, and anything else.  Ancestry hasn't turned up much nor have some of the free Ireland sites I have visited to date.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Tyrone / Pollock / McNutt (or Nutt) family

Hi There.  This will be the first of a few posts.  I've traced my grandmothers roots back to Ireland which is exciting.  I've hit a bit of a road block with Ancestry.ca and are hoping someone here might be able to help.

Sarah Pollock was born in Castlewarren Twp, Tyronne, Ireland on 1854-05-23.  She was married in 1880-06-05 to William Hyde in Ontario Canada.  Not sure if that helps or not.  Anyhow, I found a loose reference to her parents somewhere being George Pollock (born around 1820) and Sarah McNutt or possibly just Nutt with the reference indicating they were both from Tyronne.  I found mention of George ("Big George") Pollock in the following link http://www.cotyroneireland.com/churchrecord/donagheadyVestrymen1870.html and that seemed to be relevant given the dates, but I can't seem to find out any other information on him, his siblings, his parents or any information on his wife, her siblings or her parents.  I've seen other Pollock posts but no mention of a George.  Perhaps was a middle name or perhaps the names of Sarah Pollock's parents that I have been working off of are incorrect.  Any help would be great!
