John Hurd b.~1640 Connecticut
There is confusion here between the Virginia Hord's and a John Hurd in Connecticut born 1640 who is from the same area in Southeast England as the Hore lines. Variations on their name are Heard, Horde, Hourd, Hoord, Hird, Herd, and Hord and thus very closely overlapping with names here. The project is not considered expanded into this surname unless DNA testing begins to show the surnames are truly related. We will continue to document and expand information here, as discovered, in case an overlap is found or a surname group in this area wishes to develop content here.
