Ann Halfhyde Green D'Eye is my Fourth Great-grandmother. I know some details about her, but unfortunately, I haven't been able to get back to the generation before. You'd think that with a rare name like "Halfhyde" in her name it would be easier, but not so much.
I've confirmed her date of death of 19 February 1844 from her death record [D00684] and from the National Burial Index. Both of those sources put her year of birth at around 1771. The 1841 census suggests a birth year of 1776, but the 1841 census often rounded ages to the nearest multiple of five, so that is likely what happened [D01522].
Her name appears as "Ann Halfyde D'Eye" on her death record and "Ann Halfhyde Green" on her marriage registration [D00149].
Unfortunately, I have not been able to find a baptism record for an Ann Halfhyde Green. Or, for that matter, an Ann Halfhyde anything. I've been looking for an Ann Green born about 1771, but there are quite a number of them. And none with an obvious family name of Halfhyde. I was hoping to find an Ann Green with a father with a surname of Green and a mother with a surname of Halfhyde, but haven't found anything so far.
