Additional information about Brooke Hyland’s fathers side of the family. Brooke’s paternal grandfather was Dale Jackson Hyland 1941-1997. Dale’s parents were William J Hyland and Mildred C. Marquis. I believe Brooke’s paternal grandmother was Shirley S. Hyland but not confident. Also I think Brooke’s father should be listed as French as well being that there is a “Marquis” in the family which is usually French.
How do you know that? And what makes you think that Hyland’s mother is Jewish?
I am not confident that he is the father but defiantly a relative. As for her mother I read from what I am guessing a non-reliable fan website about Kelly Hyland having Jewish roots. But are you confident that Kelly (Kuhn) Hyland is English and/or Irish with a German or German-Jewish maiden name? Btw I hope you’re not offended, I often mess up with submissions from celebrities that aren’t as well known with fewer documented sources.
Kelly (Kuhn) Hyland isn’t Jewish.
I’m pretty sure these are her parents.

And this would be Hyland’s great-grandmother.

And her great-grandparents.

They are of Pennsylvania non-Jewish German descent.
bearboy, from what I gather, her grandfather Dale J. Hyland died in Texas in 1990 in a car crash. I don’t know what the J stands for, but it likely isn’t Jackson (the person with that middle name that died in ’97 is not her grandfather).
