"Elizabeth Olcott, daughter of Thomas and Abigail (_____) Olcott, … married after February 7,1674, _____ Hide. (Document 198, in Vol. 1 of Private Controversies in the Connecticut State Library, is a bond, dated Feb. 7, 1674, from Samuel Hale of Wethersfield to Widow Abigail Olcott. Elizabeth Olcott signs as a witness.)
In the first edition of the Olcott genealogy, printed in 1845, it is stated that her husband's name was Timothy Hide. A man of that name resided in Wethersfield in 1679, and he may have been her husband, but of this the compiler has been unable to find any proof. The date of her husband’s death is unknown. In Vol. 1, page 191, of the Hartford Land Records, is the copy of a deed, dated February 7, 1698, from Samuel and John Olcott, conveying sixty-six acres in the West Division, and in this deed they give a warrant against the claims of their sister, Widow Elizabeth Hide."
