Seymour, Quaker Farms and Oxford were originally part of the town of Derby, Connecticut, and so these terms at various early times were used interchangeably by residents especially when referring to where people were born.
Sally was the only child of her mother Hannah/Susanna Bouton. It appears that her family for some generations were from Norwalk, Fairfield, CT. Her mother, Hannah was a devout member of the Episcopal Church. Still searching for the father who supposedly was named Thorpe, but another grandson Rev. Dr. Ammi Bradford Hyde says she was a Quintard. Professional genealogists have disproven the James Bouton account that the Bouton's were originally French Huguenots.
Sally was a devout member of the Episcopalian Church in Oxford, New Haven, CT, until sometime shortly before her death, she became a devout Methodist Episcopalian, according to son, Orson Hyde, in his diary. He was only 7 when she died. Another son of hers, Asahel Johnson Hyde was a devout Episcopalian and converted to ME Church in Oxford, Chenango, NY in 1828. In 1848, Asahel Johnson Hyde traveled all the way from Oxford, Chenango, NY to visit Seymour (still Derby until it was incorporated in 1850) to visit the site of his mother's grave in "the Methodist Cemetery."
Hannah Susannah Bouton Marvin, Sally's mother's name when she died, left property to her grandchildren in her will specifying that the property would not pass to her grandchildren until David Marvin, her last husband died. He died in 1842. The children of Sally and Nathan Hyde, and Hannah's grandchildren included:
1. Abijah who married 1st Sally Candee, then when she died married Mary Davis
2. Laura who married William B North
3. Sally Lovilla who married David Miner
4. Asahel Johnson who married Mary Osborne Hinckley, and
lastly
5. Ammi Rogers who married but it appears was separated from Mary Ann Corson.
6. Excluded from his grandmother's will was grandson Orson Hyde.
Nathan, Sally's husband, never converted to the ME Church, but was born and raised Episcopalian and after his drowning, the decomposed body was buried on the family Homestead, then the Old Abijah Hyde Homestead in Quaker Farms aka Oxford.
