Excerpt from The Duration of Life and Conditions Associated With Longevity: A Study of the Hyde Genealogy

The details have been taken from the Genealogy of the Hyde Family, by Reu ben H. Walworth, LL. D. A work relating to the descendants of William Hyde, one of the early settlers of Norwich, Conn., who died in 1681.

At first sight it would seem that but little information of general interest or value could be obtained from the records of a single family; but a little consideration will show that the descendants did not constitute a single family at all, and indeed had very little of the Hyde blood in them.

Even the children of William Hyde owed only half of their blood to him, and one half to his wife. The grandchildren owed only one-quarter of their blood to William Hyde, and three-quarters to other people, 850. The descendants of the seventh generation, and there are hundreds of them, owed only l/64th of their blood to William Hyde, and 63/64ths to the new blood introduced through successive generations of marriages with persons not of the Hyde blood at all.
