NOTE: SOME HYLTON-JOYCE FAMILY TREE INFO IS AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE.
At this Hilton, Hylton, Helton, Reynolds website, we are inviting all relatives and friends to also send in more information that we can archive and add here. We are especially in need of photos, individual names and information about all family members (including relatives of spouses) and other details missing about the family. Because this website was originally created from my (KOH's) perspective, it now needs the input and perspectives of others far beyond my own. Please re-visit (and also add to) the list of growing family names below. KOH takes full responsibility for any sensitive information (or buried family secrets). Thank you in advance.
The following are many of the surnames within our family tree (connected through one or both of my parents): Arrington, Barnett, Baskerville, Beane, Bingham, Blaney, Brown, Cabiness, Calloway, Carter, Claytor, Cooke, Copeland, Crockett, Divers, Draper, Eastwood, Flood, Franks, Freeman, Gibson, Grogan, Grogans, Hale, Harper, Harrison, Harvey, Holmes, Hughes, Johnson, Jones, Joyce, Kirby-Green, Kirtley, Lewis, Lovelace, Martin, McDaniel, McLamb, Moore, Nowlin, Page, Paige, Patterson, Payne, Penn, Phelps, Porter, Rhodes, Richardson, Robertson, Saunders, Smith, St.Clair, Stuart, Terry, Thomas, Thompson, Trent, Tyehimba, Tyson, Via, Watkins, Webb, White, Williams, Wilson, Woody, Worrell, Worthington, Zimmer. I could go on, but I will start leaving names off...(If your family surname is missing, please let us know so that it can be added)

Below is a very, very rough video effort by KOH that attempts to show the amazing family research done on the Hylton-Joyce family members led by Dr. Lawrence Hylton, Sr. of Long Island, New York. The actual tree was designed by our late relative Roscoe Martin. The tree holds over 3,500 names. This video does not capture the fullness of this ongoing project. It has to be seen in person to appreciate!
And at the bottom of the page is another very rough slideshow effort of the tree that features several of the branches. Not all family branches are featured, so KOH takes full responsibility for inclusion and/or exclusion. Again, the family tree is best appreciated in person. This video and photos are not intended in any way to take away from the real beauty and ongoing research being gathered from the true historians of the family. In the interim, please feel free to pause the video at times or freeze frame the photos to look at names. Enjoy! KOH, PhD
