The home of the Fox Sisters, Hydesville, was near Rochester in upstate NY, but it's been overtaken by other conurbations. Does anyone have any information about what it's called today?

It's just north of Newark. Look on Google maps.

I looked on Google Street View, but the house it points to certainly doesn't look like it was there in the 1840s!

Look up and down the street. Sometimes Google is off by one.

Put this into google map: The Fox Sister's House, Hydesville Rd, Newark, Wayne, New York 14513
I believe that's the memorial park where the house was. Then the second house in Rochester has a memorial: http://www.waymarking.com/waymarks/WMDTV......ester_NY |

Interesting Is that second location where they were sent when news got out, or perhaps Leah's house?

I think it's the elder sisters house, Leah, where they went in 1948. But it isn't very clear.

The Fox sisters home in Hydesville was move to Lily Dale around 1915, and burned down in the mid 50s I believe.
