Rebecca Eggleston is the daughter of David Eggleston Sr. and Rebecca (Judd) Eggleston. Born in New York, she and her family moved to Athens Township, Ohio, where she met and married Stephen A. Hyde, son of Oliver M. and Catherine Hyde, on November 29, 1829. The couple had at least seven children: Susan, David E., Cyrus Lyens, William H., Mary S., Jasper, and Daniel. About 1851, the family moved from Athens County, Ohio, stopping briefly in Van Buren and Lee counties in Iowa, then settling in Scotland County, Missouri, where Stephen acquired several hundred acres of government land. The 1858 Scotland County Plat Map shows him owning 720 acres in Township 66, Range 11, Sections 5, 6, 7, and 8. The original Stephen Hyde home and farmstead is designated as an historic site by the Missouri Committee for Agriculture. The Hyde family played an important role in the development of the Brock community in Union Township. The Brock school was for many years called the "Hyde School."
