William married again after the death of Rachel to Elizabeth Brierton in 1888. The photo I include is of William and Elizabeth. I guess they are in their 60’s or 70’s. William died in 1919 at the age of 77 years. Elizabeth died in 1930 at the age of 81. William and Elizabeth had one child who died in infancy. |

Quotes from my Dad (James Hyde junior, son of Philip) about James Hyde senior (his grandfather):- “he was born of humble parents living in Ecton, when young he walked to Rushden, probably working in a shoe factory, later started a cobbling shop with a friend. He used to walk to Ecton courting Leanna who was a cook in the big house there, when they married they lived in a small terraced house in Rushden with William Driver, Leanna's young brother. James Hyde was an honest, well-respected business man in Rushden. He was managing director of the firm James Hyde Ltd, director of JW Moir and Co., a member of the advisory committee of Rushden, Higham Ferres, Irthlingborough Boot and Shoe Manufacturers' Association, and a director of the Rushden Conservative Club.” Violet Hyde, my gran, said to James Hyde, my Dad, - “mother always said James Hyde was fussy about his appearance and they always dressed smartly and in fashion.” |
