David Hayde

John b circa 1815 and Mary Anne Quigley

John Hayde and his wife Mary Anne were in Ballymacarret, County Down in the 1850s.  They were married in St Patrick’s church in 1830 (as Huyde).

John and Mary Anne had the following children baptised in St Matthew’s church:

  • Charles b 1844 and d 1891
  • Rose Anne b 1849 and d 1869
  • Henry b 1854.  He married Margaret Benson and had the following children:
    • John Head b 1877
    • George Heade/Hayde b 1879, who enlisted with the British army in 1891 and was discharged in 1909. He was single at the time of the 1911 census
    • Patrick Hade b 1881. D 1883
    • Jane Haid b 1885. D 1887
    • Rose Anne Hayde b 1883
    • Margaret Hayde b 1887
    • Mary Jane Hade b 1890
    • Patrick Hade b 1891 (d before 1897)
    • Henry Haide b 1895
  • George
    • Kate Hayde. Mar 1896

I also found a Patrick Hayde who married Catherine Marion in Mass in 1871. He had arrived in America in 1864 and was born Co Down.  I have assumed that he is another son. They did not appear to have any children.

The records for St Matthew’s also show:

  • The marriage of Daniel Conway to Mary Head in 1857.  They had a son baptised 1873 in St Matthew’s who emigrated to America and married in Baltimore in 1898. I have assumed that Mary is a brother of John (who married Mary Anne Quigley).

Also in the records for St Patrick’s were:

  • The marriage of John Hoyd to Mary O’Neill in 1810.  I have assumed that these are the parents of John who married Mary Quigly and that John’s baptism should be in this parish somewhere.
  • Thomas Hayd b 1848 to Thomas and Betty Murphy.  I am not sure how Thomas connects to John.
  • Mary Hade b 1834 to Jas McLennan and Ellen.  I am also not sure of this connection.

The following map shows the closeness of the two catholic churches.

Henry and Margaret were in the Co Down 1901 and 1911 census records as Hayde.

In the civil records for Belfast, I found the death of John Hayd in 1875.  He was a married newspaper vendor aged 60 (ie born 1815). I also found him (as Head) in the Griffiths records in circa 1850 for Ballymacarret, Co Down.  In a 1843 directory he was listed as (Haid) a weaver.   Ballymacarret is a ward in eastern Belfast.

Recorded in Londonderry was the death of William Hade in 1890 aged 77 (ie b 1813). It is possible that he was a brother of John’s.

It is possible that the John who married Mary O’Neill moved to Belfast from Dublin and is connected to the families who were newspaper vendors/dairy owners in Dublin at the time.

I have not found any living descendants of this family.

Ballymacarret is shown on the Belfast map below.

The information that I have gathered on this family is outlined in the following document:

Belfast Families

Any further information would be welcome.

Apart from the main families that settled in New York and Chicago, which are covered under the Tipperary (Ballinure, Ballingarry and Killballherberry), Carlow, Kilkenny and Kildare/Wicklow sections, there are a number of other families from Ireland that settled in America.  For some of these the Irish origins have been identified and others not.

These are:

1) Families that settled in Massachusetts such as:

  • James Hayde and Margaret in Charleston, Boston
  • Michael Hayde and Mary in Boston, Suffolk (from Tipperary)
  • David Hade and Margaret in Quincy, Norfolk

These are part of Tree # 24 and are covered in more detail in the Massachusetts Posts page. Their Irish origin is not known.

2) Families from Urlingford that settled in Massachetts such as:

  • Descendants of James and Mary Hackett, John and Ellen Doran and Edmond and Ellen Lahy (Tree # 4)

3) Families that settled in New York such as:

  • John and Ann in New York City
  • Thomas and Mary in Queens
  • Patrick and Catherine

The Irish origins of these families is unknown.

4) A family from Meath that settled in Oregan. This is Tree # 17 and is covered in more detail in the Meath Posts page.

5) Families that settled in Indiana. This is Tree # 19 and is covered in more detail in the Indiana Posts page.

6) Families that settled in Saint Louis, Missouri. This is Tree # 22 and is covered in more detail in the St Louis Posts page.

Brooklyn, Kings and Newark, New Jersey

George (b 1807) and Mary

George (b 1807) and Mary Hade were in Brooklyn, Kings in 1850. George was a grocer and they were both born Ireland. Mary died in 1857 and in 1860 George was on his own in Newark, New Jersey. In 1870, he was still in Newark and had been joined by Elizabeth Hade (b 1800, Ireland). She was single and presumably a sister. Both George and Elizabeth died in 1880.

Peter (b 1803)

Also in Newark in 1860 was Peter Hade (1803, New Jersey). He was a gardener. It is possible he is related to George and the place of birth was confused.

Christopher (b 1834) and Lucy Reynolds

In 1870, a Christopher Hade b 1834 was in South Orange, Essex, New Jersey. By 1880 Christopher had married Lucy Reynolds and was in Newark with their children. The 1870 census states he was born New Jersey however in 1880 it says Ireland. Their children were:

  • Mary Rose b 1875, NJ
  • Julia A 1877
  • Mathew J b 1878, d 1885
  • George E b 1879, d 1887
  • Martha

The Newark directories for 1884 show Lucy as a widow, managing a saloon and living at 66 Johnson.

Christopher died in 1880 and was described as a gardener born in Ireland. Christopher is probably a son of George and Mary however he could not be found in the 1850 and 1860 census records.

There are also Heade families that originated from Galway and Cork in Ireland.  I have not documented these as I’m not sure how or if these families are linked to the others from Ireland.

Canada

{add something about arrivals}

There are few relevant signs of related families in Canada. The main ones are listed below.

Quebec

In 1851, a Thomas Hayde was farming at Terrebonne, Quebec. Terrebonne is a suburb of Montreal.

The city of Terrebonne is made up of three founding districts namely Terrebonne, Lachenaie and La Plaine. These districts used to be separate cities but in 2001, they were merged to form the current City of Terrebonne.

The district of Lachenaie is located along the northern shores of Mille-îles River, opposite the Rivière des Prairies. The now suburban area was previously a farming village and it was also the first settlement of European colonists. The district was then called “La Chesnaye” (1673) and was under seigneur Charles-Aubert de La Chesnaye. In 1855, it was named Saint-Charles-de-Lachenaie. The name was shortened to “Lachenaie” in 1972. In 1734 and 1735, the first church and manor (respectively) in Lachenaie were constructed under the orders of Abbot Louis Lepage de Ste-Claire.

In the 1830, parts of Mascouche, Sainte-Anne-des-Plaines, Saint-Lin and Terrebonne comprised the district of La Plaine. The economy of this city grew when a rail system was established and in 1877, Saint Joachim was founded, which was renamed “La Plaine” in 1920. Another road to an economic growth is through the collaboration between the lords of Terrebonne and Lachenaie. A road that joins the two cities was built and was called “chemin de la Grande Ligne”. This is now known as boulevard Laurier.

Terrebonne is located in Central Quebec

His family can be summarised as:

Thomas b 1798 and Anastasia Gainer. They married Killarney, Kerry, Ireland in 1815. Thomas was in the Tipperary Militia at the time and that they were described as both from Killa????. This could be Killarune or perhaps Killenaule.  A record (in French) dated 29 Jan 1835 for a transaction in Terrebonne showed he was here by then.

  • Winifred Hayde b 1819, Ireland. Mar Patrick O’Hara
  • Bridget Hayde b 1824, Ireland. Mar Finton Delahunty or Delany 1854. D 1868.
  • Thomas Hayde b 1827, Ireland. He joined army at St Louis in 1849. Mar Ann Gorman circa 1852 and d 1859. Ann remarried a McDonald in Canada circa 1865
    • Richard Hayde b 1853, British Columbia. Carpenter. Single in 1910. In Manhattan Almshouse in 1919
    • Mary Hayde b 1856, British Columbia. Mar ? Egan. New York with brothers in 1910
    • John Hayde b 1857, British Columbia. Carpenter. Mar Mary Otis
      • Celia Hayde b 1892, New York
      • Annie Hayde b 1896, New York
    • Thomas Hayde b 1858, British Columbia. Carpenter. No sign of him after 1880

John and Thomas were in Washington, NY State in 1880 and by 1900 were in New York City with brother Richard.

There does not appear to be a male descendant of this family.

Ontario

There were some families in Ontario in 1871 and 1881.

The relevant Canadian records are summarised at {add}.

Tree # 17

As mentioned in the Early Irish History page, there were 6 Head families in Ratoath, Meath in 1659.

Ratoath

Ratoath is north east of Dublin as can be seen from the map below

Co. Meath, Ireland

There are no records between this time and the start of the Catholic parish records so it is not possible to determine who those families were and the history can only be picked up when the church records started.

The Ratoath Catholic records started in 1781 and the relevant families are:

John and Catherine Moore. Catherine probably in Rathdrinagh as Heade in 1854

  • Nicholas Head b 1792
  • Richard Head 1794
  • Thomas Head b 1795
  • Mary Head b 1797
  • Elizabeth Head v 1799
  • Anne Head b 1803
  • Margaret Head b 1803
  • Nicholas Head b 1806
  • Elizabeth Head b 1812
  • Bridget Head b 1815

Richard and Jane Brannan. In Ratoath Town in 1828 as Haid

  • Bridget Head b 1801
  • Elizabeth Head b 1801
  • Cath Head b 1812

Thomas married Bridget Keegan in 1796. In Ratoath Town as Haid in 1859

  • Christian Head in 1797
  • Thos Head b 1798

Patrick married Judith Fagan in 1817. Judith was in Ratoath Town as Haid in 1854.

  • Michael Head b 1818
  • John Head b 1820
  • Richard Heade b 1824. Mar Ann Crosby. Was a publican (as a Hayde) and died 1866 (as Hayde). Ann Hayde was adjudged bankrupt in 1878.
  • Anne Heade b 1826
  • Alice Hade b 1828. Mar 1852
  • Mary Haide b 1831

The parish also recorded the deaths of

  • Nicholas Head in 1791
  • Patrick Head in 1795
  • Richard Head in 1815
  • Thomas Head in 181

The ages are not stated but they could well have been adults from the earlier generation. The commonality of the use of Nicholas proves a clue to the family linkages.

The records for the parish of Dunboyne, a parish adjoining Ratoath, had the following family:

Nicholas and Bridget Mullady

  • Richard Hade b 1799
  • Nicholas Hade b 1804

Thomas and Anne Cannon

  • Thomas Hade b 1809

The 1901 census records had no relevant entries.

Duleek

I have found a Nicholas Heade and a Nicholas Hade living in Duleek town, Meath in 1854.  They are father and son.  Interestingly the parish and civil records show the children of the older Nicholas named as Hade and Hayde as well as Heade.

As can be seen from the map below, Duleek is situated on the main road between Dublin and Belfast.

Co. Meath, Ireland

The older Nicholas died in 1873 aged 85 (ie b circa 1788). His death was recorded in the civil registration district of Droghedra (Meath) as Hayde. There is no record of any Heade/Hade/Hayde in Duleek in the Tithe records of the early 1800s so I can only assume that some time between 1830 and 1854 Nicholas, together with members of his family, arrived in Duleek.  They were labourers rather than farmers and they presumably went there in search of employment.

The younger Nicholas married Mary Carroll in Kingstown, Dun Laoghire in 1863 as Heath.  Mary was from Dunleary, Kingstown.  Weddings were usually celebrated in the wife’s parish so Nicholas must have met Mary in Duleek and they travelled to Kingstown for the wedding and then returned to Duleek. His parents were named as Nicholas and Ann Gorman.  I have not found any references to Nicholas and Ann Gorman in the parish records.  Given the scarcity of the name Nicholas, he probably links back to the Dunlavin parish in Kildare where this name is also used.

A DNA match of a descendant of this Meath tree also shows a link to the Kildare/Wicklow families (as well as the Tipperary families).

This family can be summarised as:

Nicholas b circa 1788. D 1873. Mar Ann Gorman who probably died before civil registration began in 1864.

  • Nicholas b circa 1830 and Mary Carroll Eustace. Nicholas died Duleek 1888 aged 58
    • John Hayde b 1864, Duleek. D 1912. Mar Mary Anne Skelly in 1889
      • Mary Christina Heade b 1891
      • Nicholas Patrick Heade b 1892. Mar Kathleen Finegan 1918
        • John A Heade b 1919, Ardee
        • Nicholas Patrick Heade b 1921, Ardee
        • James Declan Heade b 1923, Ardee
        • Imelda G Heade b 1926, Oregan
        • Sodelbia M Heade b 1931, Oregan
      • Katherine Heade b 1893
      • Josephine Mary Heade b 1895
      • Agnes Mary Heade b 1897
      • James Patrick Heade b 1900
      • Cecilia Heade b 1903
      • Philomenia Heade b 1905
      • John Joseph Heade b 1909

John died in Duleek in 1912. Mary remarried Michael Barker in 1913 and emigrated to America with some of the children in 1920.  They arrived in Philadelphia and settled in Oregan.

Nicholas and Kathleen arrived in 1924 with their 3 young children.

Mary Anne with two children outside the restaurant they ran in the Main Street of Duleek. Taken early 1900s

The Philadelphia arrival records in 1920 show that they were to live with Patrick Skelly in Portland, Oregan.  This was Mary Annes’ father and explains why they emigrated to Oregan.

Marion City, Grant, Indiana


Martin Boots and David Branson each donated 30 acres (120,000 m2) of land in 1831 for the site of Marion. They chose a location on the left bank of the swift, scenic river which the Miami Indians had named “Mississinewa,” meaning “Falling water.” So rapid had been the tide of settlement that it followed by only 19 years the Battle of Mississinewa, 7 miles (11 km) downstream, where U.S. troops and Indians had fought a bloody, pre-dawn encounter in 1812.

With the formation of Grant County in 1831, Marion was established as the county seat. The river provided water supply, power, and drainage and it bequeathed a natural beauty as it flowed at the base of hills that marched away on either side. Along with at least 36 other communities in the U.S., Marion was named for the Revolutionary War General Francis Marion, the “Swamp Fox” of South Carolina.

Marion grew slowly for more than 50 years as an agricultural trading center supported by a sprinkling of small farm- and forest-related industries.

In the 1880s, fields of natural gas were discovered across much of east-central Indiana, and Grant County began to grow at a dizzying pace. Gas City and Matthews were carved out of raw farmland and launched as speculative boom towns, each absorbing existing tiny villages.

George Hayde b 1821 and Mary Jane McKee

The earliest ancestor of a Hayde family in Indiana is a George W Hayde b 1821 New Jersey. He was a farmer in Ohio in 1850, a labourer in Indiana in 1860 and a pump maker in Indiana in 1864 and 1870.

George married Mary Jane McKee in Ohio in 1847.  (He is not the George Hade that served in the Pennsylvania cavalry in the civil war and had an invalid pension awarded in 1878).

They had the following 5 children (of whom only 1 was alive in 1900):

  • ANO
  • ANO
  • Sarah b Ohio 1852. She married Crowel Walker in 1876
  • George W b Indiana 1854. He died before 1900. He married Wilhelmina (Winnie) Rigler (b 1864 Indiana) in 1886 and they had:
    • Frank Charles b 1887, d 1980. Frank was in San Francisco at the time of WW1 registrations. He married Hope Gregory in NY in 1920, was a superintendent at a warehouse in Queens in 1930 and a shipping clerk in Wisconsin in 1940. They had the following children:
      • Gloria b New York 1924
    • Helen b 1891
  • (Theodore) Wilson Hayde b Indiana 1861, d 1899. Theodore married Phoebe Lugar (b 1863) in 1881 and they had:
    • Estella Sarah (b 1882) Indiana
    • Mamie J (b 1884) Indiana
    • George Wilson (b 1887) Indiana, d 1947. George married Eva Seybold and lived in Grant, Indiana.
      • Phoebe Ada, b 1921 d 1980s
      • Nancy b 1924
      • George W Jnr b 1927
      • Robert Theodore Hayde b Indiana 1931

Theodore, Phoebe and children went to Fitzgerald, Georgia with a group of ex-Unionists to establish this city with Mr P Fitzgerald. Phoebe and children were still there in the 1900 census.

This male line of this family seems to have ended.

Origins

Having researched the origins of George W b 1821, it appears that his ancestors are:

  • Benjamin Hade b 1786 New Jersey and Anna Voorhee
    • John Hyde/Hide b 1746 New Jersey and Hannah Rittenhouse
      • John Hyde/Hide b 1705 Gloucester, Shirley, England and Elizabeth Runyon

John Hide is noted in various records associated with the revolution.  He served in the New Jersey militia in 1782.

From Urlingford (Tree # 4)

As described in the Urlingford posts page, several descendants from this area settled in Massachusetts.  These families are outlined below.

Descendants of James and Mary Hackett

Julia Hayde (b 1878) arrived Boston on 10 Sept 1904 with her sister Kate Kavanagh.  They were heading for Brunswick, NJ when they first arrived.  They were both widowed.

In 1908 Julia was living in Boston with Kate when she did a return trip from Ireland. In 1910 she was working at the South Department Boston City Hospital.

Julia had married Michael Hayde who died in Urlingford in 1902. They had a son, James b 1897, who stayed in Ireland.  In 1911, he was living with his uncle James in Urlingford.  James and his wife had no children of their own. James visited his mother in America in 1921 on the Celtic when she was living at 248 E 39th Street New York.  At the time he was a shop assistant in Kilkenny.

James stayed and became a citizen in 1928. In 1930, he was in Franklin St, Brookline, Mass (as Hyde) with his wife Anna and daughter.

Descendants of John and Ellen Doran

Mary Hayde

Mary Hayde (b 1903) arrived in Montreal on 7 Sept 1930.  She travelled with John Doran and they were both from The Commons, Thurles. She was to stay with the Sisters of Service and he with a friend in Montreal.

John Hayde

John Hayde (b 1905) from Clomanagh arrived in NY on 26 Oct 1930. He was to stay with a cousin Michael Maher at 80 E 121st St.

He died in Ireland in 1977 as a USA pensioner.

Descendants of Edmond and Ellen Lahy

William (b 1832) from Craddockstown, Kilkenny arrived in NY on 28 Jun 1880 (as Heade). He and his wife Mary Cass had a family in Urlingford parish in the 1860s and 1870s.

Mary and three children, Edmund (b 1865), Patrick (b 1876), and Sarah (b 1879) arrived in NY on 30 May 1881 (as Heade). They had a further child, Francis Joseph Heade, in 1887. In 1900 they were living Glassboro, Gloucester, NJ. This family has adopted the Heade surname. Edmund, Patrick and Francis all married.

From Ireland to Charleston, Boston, Massachusetts (Tree # 24)

Charlestown is the oldest neighborhood in Boston, Massachusetts, United States. It is located on a peninsula north of the Charles River, across from downtown Boston, and also adjoins the Mystic River and Boston Harbor. Charlestown was originally a separate town and the first capital of the Massachusetts Bay Colony.

Charlestown became a city in 1848 and was annexed by Boston on January 5, 1874. With that, it also switched from Middlesex County, to which it had belonged since 1643, to Suffolk County. It has had a substantial Irish American population since the migration of Irish people during the Great Irish Famine of the 1840s.

James Hayde (b 1836) and Margaret

A Charleston, Boston family from Ireland can be traced back to a James and Margaret Hade who had the following children:

James, a mariner, (b Ireland 1836) and Bridget Wade. Married Charleston 1864. James was a marble cutter in 1880. They had:

  • Margaret b 1865 Charleston
  • Thomas E J Hayde b 1866 Charleston who married Louise Fontaine in 1895. He died 1900. They had:
    • Ruth b 1898
  • Helen T Hayde b 1868. Carpet weaver, married 1899
  • James Francis Hayde b Boston, 16 June 1874. Clerk (Hayde, Mintz and Good) 1895-1908. He was a chauffeur at the time of the WW1 Drafts.
  • Richard Hayde, marble polisher in 1895-1899
  • Michael Hayde, marble worker 1908
  • John Hayde, Floorman 1885-1889 (assumed relationship)
  • Alice b 1842. Married Joseph Connor, Charleston 1862 (assumed relationship)

They were Hayd in 1865, Hyde in the 1880 census, Hayde in the city directories. In the 1900 census, James, Bridget and James together with Thomas and Louise were Hayde.

The 1900 census stated that James arrived 1850. Bridget had 6 children with 5 living. I have not found James in either 1850, 1855 or 1860 census.

From Ireland to Boston, Suffolk, Massachusetts (Tree # 24)

Michael Hayde and Mary

Two children of Michael and Mary married in Massachusetts.  They were:

  • John Hayde, a hostelier born Ireland in 1837. He married Catherine Ryan in 1864
  • Maggie Hayde, born Ireland 1848. She married James Carney

I could not find John and Catherine in the 1870 or 1880 census records.

In 1907, a Mary Hayde placed an advert in ‘The Boston Pilot’ seeking Michael Joseph Hayde, born Boston 1867, a son of John and Catherine Ryan of Tipperary. Michael had last been heard of 13 years ago (1894) in Buffalo, NY. Mary lived in Joy St, Boston and was born in 1860 in Ireland according to the 1900 census. She arrived in 1874, although I could not find her in the arrival records.

The closest Irish connection is to a Michael and Mary Cahill in Ballingarry parish.  The parish records show a John in 1834 and a Margaret in 1843.

The city directories of 1885 – 1899 recorded Richard Hayde, a hostelier, and his widow Margaret. Given he had the same (and unusual) occupation to John he may well have been a son. There was no sign of them in 1900.

From Ireland to Quincy, Norfolk, Massachusetts (Tree # 24)

Quincy is the largest city in Norfolk County, Massachusetts, United States. It is a major part of Metropolitan Boston and is Boston’s immediate southern suburb. Quincy became a city in 1888.

For more than a century, Quincy was home to a thriving granite industry; the city was also the site of the Granite Railway, the United States’ first commercial railroad.

David Hade and Margaret

David Hade (b 1825) and Margaret were both born Ireland and were in Quincy in 1860. They had:

  • Mary b 1861
  • Walter John b 1863 (died 1882)

David was a stone cutter. I have not found their arrival records.

Terrebonne is located in Central Quebec

  • Thomas Hayde b 1827, Ireland. He joined army at St Louis in 1849. Mar Ann Gorman circa 1852 and d 1859. Ann remarried a McDonald in Canada circa 1865
    • Richard Hayde b 1853, British Columbia. Carpenter. Single in 1910. In Manhattan Almshouse in 1919
    • Mary Hayde b 1856, British Columbia. Mar ? Egan. New York with brothers in 1910
    • John Hayde b 1857, British Columbia. Carpenter. Mar Mary Otis
      • Celia Hayde b 1892, New York
      • Annie Hayde b 1896, New York
    • Thomas Hayde b 1858, British Columbia. Carpenter. No sign of him after 1880

John and Thomas were in Washington, NY State in 1880 and by 1900 were in New York City with brother Richard.

There does not appear to be a male descendant of this family.

There were some families in Ontario in 1871 and 1881.

In Germany there are many places with names similar to Hayde – Hayd, Heid, Heide, Heidt, being some of them.  The surnames are prolific in southern German areas around the Palatinate.

The page on German Research covers the research undertaken. The page that describes the Meaning of the Name also covers the German names, crests etc.

I have spent numerous hours trying to trace a Hayde (and variants) from the Palatine to England, Ireland and America in order to try to find (unsuccessfully) a connection between the Irish and German Haydes.

In 1709/10 some 821 Palatine families were sent to Ireland from London, after they had left the Palatine and made their way to London.  They were essentially protestants who fled the Palatine due to the persecutions at the time.  I however have not found a Hayde or variant in any of these records.

Germany (Tree # 13)

What I have traced is a family who used Hayde (and most of the variants) back to Nuertingen in Baden Wuerttemburg in the early 1500s.  This is a very comprehensive tree and can be viewed as Tree # 13 at https://www.ancestry.co.uk/family-tree/tree/51542132/family

The DNA of a descendant of this family is completely different to the DNA of Irish families. This eliminates any possibility of a connection between the Irish and Germanic Hayde families.

There is also a web site for this tree at http://www.genealogy.com/ftm/h/a/y/Karl-Hayde-VIC/WEBSITE-0001/UHP-Index.html

Bohenia (Tree # 5)

A Joseph Hayde from Rabi, Bohemia arrived in America in 1904 with his family.  I have not found his birthplace nor have I located living descendants.

I have found Hayde families living in Austria that can trace themselves back to Riga in Latvia.

In the tree below I have assumed a connection between these families however this is unproven.

East Germany (Tree # 19)

I have found a Hayde family living in Stuggart that can trace its history back to a von der Hayde b in the early 1880s in Berlin.

I cannot find a link between this family and others in Eastern Europe at the time.  I have also not found a living relative in order to do any DNA testing.

Hungary (Tree # 13)

A Hayde family was in Hungary in the late 1800s and early 1900s.  It is linked to the families from Germany and are described in more detail above.

Any further information is welcome.
