Surnames: BRASHEARS, HYATT, PRESTON, ROCK, TEWKSBURY
Researcher: Donna Rock

Date posted: Tuesday, October 21, 1997

My great grandmother was Luella HYATT ROCK. Her father was Luther Lingen HYATT a son of Philip HYATT, son of Jesse, son of Mesach, son of Seth, son of Charles HYATT and Sarah TEWKSBURY, son of Charles HYATT and Mary PRESTON of Prince George's County, originally from Frederick Co, Md. These HYATTs were the founders of Hyattstown and Hyattsville, Md. They are more fully written up in a book entitled "Welsh, Hyatt and Kindred Families" by Luther W. Welsh. I discovered this very valuable book in the Maryland Historical Society in Baltimore several years ago. I think you can get it or copies from other libraries. The author collected info on various descendents of Charles HYATT over a period of several years in the 1800's. Anyone interested in further info on these HYATT families can contact me.

I AM also related to the BRASHEARS, but not as closely. My 6th great grandfather Seth HYATT's daughter Ann married Thomas BRASHEARS. And later on, two of his grandchildren married BRASHEARS.

I don't have much on that surname, but a few of my discovered cousins on the internet are quite interested in it.

This HYATT line is really being researched. Have found about 12 cousins while researching it.
