[or-roots] WPA Interviews

[barbhg1221 at comcast.net]

Denise,
I found transcribed online interviews from Linn Co. at http://lgsoregon.org/resources/wpa/wpaconte.htm, but the only Hyde was Clora (Bond) Hyde.  I have one relative on the list that I found some time ago, but her interview is full of  many inaccuracies that they threw me a curve for quite awhile.

> William Franklin Hyde is the son of Henrietta Nichols (1845-1877) & John

> Western Oregon entry on John Lewis Hyde. William was married in 1892 in 
> Benton County, Oregon (to Daisy C Teas), was in Lincoln County for the 1900 
> census and back in Benton County in 1911 when his son was born. He died in
