John Walker HYDE



-
Name John Walker HYDE Relationship with Teresa Ann GOATHAM Baptised 14 Jan 1778 All Saints’ Church, West Ham, Essex, England - From transcribed data from PRs (on Ancestry, viewed 3 Sep 2019)
Gender Male Residence 1841 Frog Lane, Worcester, Worcestershire, England - With his wife Maria. Another household lived in the same house, two stone masons, father and son, and the elder's wife.
Occupation 1841 Warehouseman Residence 1843 Diglist Street, Worcester, Worcestershire, England - Where his wife died, I am guessing it is where they both lived.
Occupation 1851 China Printer - Given on his death registration
Died 17 Apr 1851 Berkeley's Hospital, Worcester, Worcestershire, England Cause: Old age - GRO ref: Hyde, John Walker q2 1851 Worcester RD 18 429; GRO online index shows age at death as 72
Details from death registration (image of GRO copy).
He was an almsman in the 'hospital' at the time of his death. The death was registered by one 'Sarah Nicholas', who was present at the death and whose residence was also the hospital. She made her mark and I believe she must have been the 62 year old almswoman recorded as 'Sarah Nichols' in the census, just a few days before John's death.
Information about the Almshouses can be found on the Historic England website here.
Buried 21 Apr 1851 City Burial Ground, Tallow Hill, Worcester, Worcestershire, England - From PR and BT entries (images on Ancestry, viewed 25 Jul 2024) in the register for burials in the parish of St. Nicholas, Worcester:
"John Hyde, No. 1311. C.B.G., abode: Berkeley Hospital, buried: April 21.st.., age: 72 years, ceremony performed by: Revd. E Faulkner Offg Minister" (transcription from PRs, only trivial differences in BTs)
I believe C.B.G. must stand for City Burial Ground, which was in the 'City Burial Ground'. This cemetery was on Tallow Hill, part at least under what is now Tallow Hill car park

1 half brother and 1 half sister (family of Samuel BRISCOE and Ruth PHILPOTT) Patriarch & Matriarch John HYDE, b. Est 1750, (probably), North Weald Bassett, Essex, England, d. Between 1778 and 1783 (Age ~ 28 years) (Father)
Mary BROUNING, bap. 18 Oct 1646, St. Peter’s Church, St. Peters, Broadstairs, Kent, England, d. Yes, date unknown (2 x Great Grandmother)
Notes - (Research):Whilst a move from London to Worcester is surprising, his middle name in the death registration which also records an age correct for this John Walker HYDE, together with a birthplace of West Ham in the 1851 census, point with virtual certainty to this being correct i.e. that John the son of John and Ruth did move to Worcester.

Family Sarah VAUGHAN, b. Abt 1778, d. Sep Q 1843, Worcester Reg Dist, Worcestershire, England (Age ~ 65 years)
Banns of marriage From 22 Jan 1797 to 5 Feb 1797 St. Giles' Church, Cripplegate, London, England - From register entry (image on Ancestry, viewed 4 Sep 2019)
Married 18 Apr 1797 St. Giles' Church, Cripplegate, London, England - From PR entry (image on FMP, viewed 4 Sep 2019)
The entry is Hardwicke-style but handwritten, not in a printed register form, and there is no mention of parental consent (though there should have been consent, as John was aged just 19)
I'm hoping I might find descendants of John HYDE or at least Ruth PHILPOTT who are a DNA match to me, to add weight to my theory that my ancestor Robert HYDE was also their son. John Walker HYDE being probably the only other descendant of both of them is of particular interest.
Those with trees on Ancestry seem to descend from son George and there is good evidence he grew up and married; a glance at indexes to CMBs and censuses suggest Charles may also have had a family and the index to Worcestershire burials on Ancestry which finds that of his parents and sisters does not find his. Families of George and Charlesl to be checked. John also, though such a common name will be harder to track.
