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 Massachusetts 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 b 1810 and Ann Hade and their children in New York City in 1850, 1860 and 1870. One of their sons adopted the Hayde surname by 1900.
  • Thomas b 1819 and Mary Hayde in Newtown, Queens in 1850.
  • William b 1824 and Mary Hade b 1834 were in Brookfield in 1855, Lewis in 1860.  In 1870 and 1880 they were in Utica, Oneida. In 1860 and 1870 they were Hayde while they were Hade in later years.
    • Julia b NY 1854. Julia was not in the 1880 or later census records.
    • Mary A b NY 1856
  • Patrick b 1810 and Catherine Hayed in Brooklyn, Kings in 1870.

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 # 21 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.

7) Families that settled in Brooklyn, Kings and Newark, and New Brunswick, New Jersey such as:

  • John b 1845 d 1887 and Margaret Long b 1848 d 1921
    • Mary A b NJ 1868. Mar Peter Donahoe 1896
    • Catherine b NJ 1870. Not in 1900 census
    • Thomas Hayde b NJ 1872. Died 1911
    • Laurence Augustus Hayde b NJ 1874. Laurence served in WW1
    • Margaret Hayde b NJ 1876. Mar George Geer 1898
    • John Aloysius Hayde b NJ 1880. Clerk. John served in WW1
    • Nellie Hayde b NJ 1882

John Hayde and Margaret Long married on 3 March 1867 in New Brunswick. I cannot find his arrival nor that of Margaret. John died in 1887.

Margaret was in New Brunswick, New Jersey in 1900 as Hayde with Thomas, Laurence, John and Nellie. She had arrived in 1863 and had 8 children with 7 living. John was a teamster in 1880. In 1870 they were Hade while in the later years were Hayde.

In 1910 Thomas, Laurence and John were single.  Of the 8 children Margaret had only 5 were alive in 1910.  In 1920 Lawrence and John were still single.

It appears that this branch of the Hayde family may have died out.

  • George (b 1805) and Mary

George (b 1805) 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 1797, Ireland). She was single and presumably a sister. Both George and Elizabeth died in 1880.

George may have been naturalised in 1869 as Head in Essex.

  • 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.

There was no sign of Peter after 1860.

  • 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 1876
  • 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 possibly related to George and Mary however he could not be found in the 1850 and 1860 census records.

The only possible Irish link found is a Christopher Heade b 1838 Monasterevan, Co Kildare.  His father was George and his mother Margaret Bassett.

This tree also seems to have died out.

8) 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 that I have recorded.

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 neighbourhood 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 Harbour. 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 circa 1800 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. James’ parents were named as James and Margaret in the birth records. James served on 3 ships (USS Marigold, Bainbridge and San Jacinto) during the civil war. They had:
    • Margaret b 1865 Charleston
    • Thomas Edward 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
    • Susan M Hayde b 1870. Married 1892
    • 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.

Those below are linked somehow due to their Charleston connection but relationship is uncertain:

    • Richard Hayde, marble polisher in 1895-1899
    • Michael Hayde, marble worker 1908
    • John Hayde, Floorman 1885-1889
    • Alice b 1842. Married Joseph Connor, Charleston 1862

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 1874

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 b 1825 and Margaret b 1826

David Hade and Margaret were both born Ireland and were in Quincy in 1860, 1870 and 1880. They had:

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

David was a stone cutter. I have not found their arrival records. David died in 1891.
