Notes:

Name:
Since Job Hyde and his wife both died when their children were young, the two grandfathers, Samuel Hyde and John Fuller, cared for the children. On 6 Apr 1686 a petition was presented for the division of the estate of Job Hyde, because if the grandfather, 'Decon Hide' should die, the children would be left with nothing. The children were given as Samuel Hide, aged 19, Elizabeth, aged 15, Mary, aged 13, Sary, aged 12, Bethia, aged 9, Hannah, aged 6, John, aged 4, and Jonathan, aged 2. (Middlesex Court Files.) On 24 Dec. 1694 Bethia, a minor in her 17th year, daughter of Job, chose her uncle, John Fuller, as guardian, Hannah, a minor in her 14th year, daughter of Job, chose her uncle, Jonathan Fuller, as guardian, Abraham Brown was appointed guardian of John, a minor in his 13th year, and Jonathan Hides was appointed guardian of Jonathan, a minor in his 11th year. (Middlesex Probate Records, vol. 8, f. 585) In 1694 administration on the estate of Job Hyde was granted to John Fuller, and in Mar. 1694/5 division was made between Elizabeth, wife of William Hide, Mary, wife of Abraham Brown, Sarah, Bethia, Hannah, John, Jonathan (the youngest son,) and Samuel (the eldest son), Samuel taking the 40 acres given to him by his father and paying to his brothers and sisters L64, their share.
