Stephen A. Hyde is the son of Oliver M. and Catherine Hyde. He married Rebecca Eggleston, daughter of David Eggleston Sr. and Rebecca (Judd) Eggleston on Noember 29, 1829, in Athens County, Ohio. 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." Following Rebecca's death in 1863, Stephen married America "Milcah" Smith. By the time the 1880 census was taken, he was again a widower, living with his son Daniel.
