    When you say "Quebec," do you mean Quebec City, or somewhere in the province of Quebec? – DRShort Mar 17 '19 at 0:10

    I ask because there doesn't seem to have been a St Paul's Presbyterian Church in Quebec City- (genealogyensemble.files.wordpress.com/2015/07/…) – DRShort Mar 17 '19 at 0:27
  • I would strongly consider looking for immigration records from Ireland. The time frame fits a major Irish migration, and I actually have a Martha Hyde of my own, whose father was born in Ireland, so Hyde can definitely be Irish. – user2448131 Mar 26 '19 at 0:40
