Witter Family: Elizabeth ?Lide of Malford, Worchestershire. Had 11 children.
AF: Elizabeth Lyde, born about 1605, Malford, Worcestershire. [The AF record cites several source books, one of which I can't find.]
Two other AF records list different birth places and/or christening places. (All filed in Brown file.)
Beers' Genealogical and Biographical Record of New London County, Conn.,
cites the Lyde spelling. Origin of English Surnames gives only that spelling,
so I'll use that also. However, other sources say Nicholas' mother was a Lide, so Nick's wife could have been from the same family. Other spellings include Lide, Leids and Leid.

The Legacy Disputes under the FamilySearch page are interesting with regard to parentage. I've found some sources if anyone is still interested. I am trying to prove or disprove if they had a son Abraham who married a Mary Potter and also had a son William Browne. I think someone messed up a lot of families and I've had bad info...as does the rest of the internet....Thanks, Becky
I only track one child - John - in my tree, and don't have any sources documenting children, etc. Do any of the other managers have info that can help?
Variations in spelling of names was not that uncommon in the early days and a number of the children are duplicates due to past merges. They have been proposed as merges themselves.
