From: Pam or Joe Stone \par
I am looking for the family of Joseph Wright, who I believe was born about 1740 \par
in VA. Joseph is believed to have died about 1790 in Laurens Co., SC. \par
The known children of Joseph WRIGHT and Mary ----- were: \par
(1) Jane Wright, (born 1774, Laurens Co.?; died 18 Dec 1837, Norcross, Gwinnett \par
Co., GA); married 13 Feb 1794, Laurens Co., SC, Matthew BOLTON. \par
(2) Mary Wright, (born 1777, Laurens Co.?; died after 1860, Calhoun Co., AL); m. \par
Terrell ANDREWS, Sr. \par
(3) David Wright, (born 1782 (1791?), Laurens Co., SC; died 16 Aug (11 Aug?) \par
1867, > Calhoun Co., AL); m. Rebecca ANDREWS. David and Rebecca reportedly had \par
six > sons and four daughters. Their proven children were: \par
(1)George M. Wright, born 1810 in Laurens Co., SC, married Nancy MCCLURKIN, \par
1835 in Talladega Co., AL. George died 1890 in Talledega Co., AL. \par
(2) Martha J. Wright, born 1828, Laurens Co., SC, married Eli BURDEN (Borden), \par
1845 in Benton Co., AL. Martha died, 1909 in Limestone Co., TX. \par
Other likely children of David and Rebecca were: \par
John A. Wright, born 1821, SC, married Hannah JOHNSTON, 1846 in Benton Co., \par
AL. John died before 1870 in Etowah Co., AL; \par
Joseph Wright, born 1823, SC, married, first, Margaret JOHNSTON, second, \par
Elizabeth NUNNELEY; \par
David A. Wright, b. 1825, Laurens Co., SC, married Susanna TEAGUE, 1845, \par
Benton Co., AL, died 1904, Calhoun Co., AL; \par
Rev. James C. Wright, born 1830, SC, died 1909, Calhoun Co., AL; \par
Elizabeth Wright, married 1837, James C. HAMILTON in Benton Co., AL; \par
Nancy Wright, married 1836, A.B. Criswell in Talledega Co., AL; \par
Mary Jane Wright, m. 1840, George W. PHILLIPS in Talledega Co., AL. \par
Other known surnames linked to the Wrights of Benton, Talladega and Calhoun \par
Cos., AL, were BURDEN (Borden, Berden) and WHEELER.\par
(4) James M. (D?) Wright , (born about 1783, Laurens Co., SC; died 9 May 1873, \par
Choctaw Co., AL); married (1) Nancy CLARDY, born 1789, Laurens Co., SC; died \par
after 1860, Choctaw Co., AL; dau. of James C. CLARDY, Sr. and Sarah HALL. James \par
married (2) 1871, Choctaw Co., AL, Susan E. BAIN ;(Susan's daughter, Cora Ellen \par
BAIN, married Jesse Caper Wright, youngest son of Jesse Austin Wright and his \par
second wife, Susan M. YOUNG [below.]) \par
(5) Joseph Wright, ( born 1788, Laurens Co., SC; died 22 Aug 1853, Tuscaloosa \par
Co., AL); married 19 Dec 1812, Rebecca ANDERS (who died 10 Dec 1874, Tuscaloosa \par
Co., AL.) \par
(6,7,8) Unidentified daughters \par
James M. Wright is recorded as living in Fayette County, AL, in 1832, when his \par
land grant in the Choctaw Indian Cession of 1832 was recorded in the Tuscaloosa \par
Land Record Office. Another grant in 1836 was recorded to a Henry Wright, \par
possibly the cousin of James. Apparently, at the same time that James M. Wright \par
was in Fayette Co., AL, a James D. Wright was recorded in Tuscaloosa County, AL. \par
Whether James M. WRIGHT and James D. WRIGHT are the same person or two different \par
people cannot at this time be assessed, as siblings of James emmigrated to that \par
Alabama county. James Wright filed a pension application as a Veteran of the War \par
of 1812. At the time his second son was born, the only child born in TN, James \par
had been discharged at Hazel Green, AL. It is believed that his wife, Nancy, \par
during the time of her husband's military service, was perhaps staying with a \par
John CLARDY whose residence just over the TN line was recorded at that time. The \par
relationship between Nancy Clardy Wright and John CLARDY is unclear; he is not \par
her brother, nor is he a recorded son of Michael CLARDY. Yet, apparently, James \par
and Nancy named their second son after this man. The parents of Nancy CLARDY, \par
James CLARDY, Sr., and Sarah Hall CLARDY died, respectively, 1841, and after \par
1850, in Laurens County, SC. James CLARDY, Sr., named his daughter, Nancy \par
Wright, in his will dated 1830, proved 1846; other children named of James \par
CLARDY and wife, Sarah, named in the will along with their mother, were: Jesse \par
E. Clardy, James Clardy, Michael Clardy, heirs of deceased William Clardy, and \par
other daughter, Suky Tierce. James CLARDY(Senior) was the son of Michael and \par
Judith CLARDY of VA; Michael CLARDY lived in Amelia Co., Virginia, and died in \par
Halifax Co., Virginia. \par
The children of James M. Wright and Nancy Clardy were: \par
(1) Jesse Austin Wright, born 13 Jan 1812, Laurens County, SC \par
(2) John Clardy Wright, born 1816, TN; married Emily (Crockett?) \par
(3) David W. Wright, born 1818, AL; died Choctaw County, AL; married Rebecca \par
GUINN, daughter of Henry GUINN & Mary Ann FITZGERALD (sister of Elizabeth, \par
below.) \par
(4) William H. Wright, born 1820, AL; married, 1842, Mahala Tyler \par
(5) Ellis Michael Wright, born 1825, AL; married Martha Jane FALLEY \par
(6) Silas Anderson Wright, born 1827, AL; married Mary Jane Ray, dau. of \par
Elijah RAY and Nancy Ann MARTIN; died Choctaw County, AL; Mary Jane RAY was \par
the only known sibling of Robert Andrew RAY. \par
(7) Sarah Caroline Wright, born 1829, AL; married Benjamin BURNS \par
(8) Reubin G. Wright, born 1835, AL; married unknown. \par
(9) Mary H. Jane Wright, born about 1824?, AL; married William MARCH \par
The children of Jesse Austin Wright and Elizabeth GUINN (Bible Record) were: \par
(1) James Clardy Wright, born 1833, AL; married unknown \par
(2) Henry S. Wright, born 1835, AL; married Rebecca Jane GUINN, daughter of \par
Wesley GUINN and his second wife, Jane BLYTHE (and granddaughter of Henry \par
GUINN and Mary Ann FITZGERALD.) \par
(3) Susan Wright (though listed this way in the Bible record, her descendants \par
have her name as Maryann Susan Wright; for some reason, almost all my \par
ancestors seem to have been known by their middle names.) Susan was born in \par
1837, Choctaw Co., AL; married Robert Andrew RAY, son of Elijah RAY and Nancy \par
Ann MARTIN. This is my Wright ancestor. \par
(4) Martha Ann Wright, born 1839, AL; married ----- STAFFORD. \par
(5)Thomas Benton Wright, born 1841, AL; married unknown. \par
(6) Melissa Emeline Wright, born 1842, AL; married unknown. \par
(7) Andrew Jackson Wright, born 1844, AL; married Jennie Louise J. ----- \par
(8) Jesse Caper Wright, born 1849, AL; married Cora Ellen BAIB. \par
Jesse A. and Elizabeth G. Wright are believed to have also had two sons not \par
recorded in the Bible record, who were: \par
(9) Thomas Benjamin "Bennie" Wright, born 1854 \par
(10) William Asbury "Berry" Wright, born 1856 \par
Jesse A. Wright married a second time in 1860 to Susan M. YOUNG. They had the \par
following children, also recorded in the family Bible: \par
(11) Jefferson Davis Wright, born 1861, AL; married unknown \par
(12) Clarissa Ursula Wright, born 1862, AL; married Thomas Jefferson CAMPBELL \par
(13) Nancy Lillian Wright, born 1865, AL; married Albert F. CREEL \par
(14) Sallie Eleanor Wright, born 1869, AL; married unknown \par
(15) Mary Caroline Wright Wright (the double name is correct), born 1871, AL; \par
married unknown \par
(16) Marcella Pembina Wright, born 1879, AL; married ----- FLYNT.\par
Also listed in this bible record are two names whose relationship I am unsure \par
of: Molly Caroline CRUMBLEY, died 1903 (possibly Mary Caroline Wright above?); \par
Maude Rivers SUMRALL, died 1919 \par
In the Choctaw Co., AL, Inventory Book H, pages 1-8 appears the following court \par
document: 20 Feb 1909: Susan M. Wright, widow, petitioner, states that Jessie A. \par
Wright died 27 March 1887, intestate. She stated they were married in 1860 and \par
that she was currently living in Tunnells, Mississippi. She listed the only \par
child of Wesley GUINN and his first wife, Lovenia PRICE, and the eldest grandson \par
of Henry GUINN and Mary Ann FITZGERALD of Madison Co., AL. Mary Susanna Wright \par
was, I believe, the daughter of either Silas A.Wright and Mary Jane RAYor the \par
daughter of David W. Wright and Rebecca GUINN. I am still trying to verify her \par
parents.) Floyd died, 1940 in Mobile, AL. \par
(4) George Smith Ray, born 1868, Choctaw Co., AL;married Mary Susan GUINN, dau. \par
of Frank GUINN and Mary Susanna Wright, and sister of Sallie (above.) George S. \par
and Mary S. Guinn Ray were my maternal great- grandparents. George Ray died \par
1964, Saraland, Mobile Co., AL. Mary S. G. Ray died 1952, Saraland, AL. \par
(5) Laura Estelle Ray, born 1872, Choctaw Co., AL; married James Buchanan \par
Thompson. Laura died 1958 in Ensley, AL. \par
(6) Robert Hosea Ray, born 1877, Clarke Co., MS; married Estelle Hanson. Robert \par
died 1898 in Montrose, AL. \par
(7) Vaughn Vegaria (Vaqara?) Ray, born 1881, Choctaw Co., AL; married Margaret \par
"Maggie" BRYANT. Vaughn died 1904 in Clarke Co., MS. They had one child, Viola \par
Ray. \par
Several of the Wrights & Rays in these lines had the middle name "Smith", the \par
origin of which is unknown. Also, it should be noted that several descendants \par
are investigating a possible link between the Wray/Ray, Borden (Burden), \par
Wheeler, and Echkols (Echols) lines of Bedford Co., Franklin Co., and Amherst \par
Co., VA. Possibly one of these counties is the birthplace of the patriarch, \par
Joseph Wright. \par
I am looking for the ancestor of Joseph, his wife's maiden name, and descendants \par
of all of these Wright families. I must have a lot more cousins out there. \par

Here's the final edition of the family tree that started in New England: \par
PART II OF WRIGHT GENEALOGY FROM : \par
\rdblquote The Wright Family,\rdblquote by George William Wright, 1929.\par
Number 5 here is the same as 5. Gideon WRIGHT, son of John WRIGHT and Ruth \par

7. Delia, b. 1825\par
Note 1: Gideon And Hezekiah moved to PA, then to Augusta County, VA, and finally \par
to Rowan County, NC. Surry County was created out of Rowan , and Gideon\rquote s land \par
became part of Surry County. Gideon was a Captain, and Hezekiah was a Lieutenant \par
in the Kings Army. \par
At this point, it becomes very difficult to sort out the family tree. The \par
following is extracted from the book: \par
Gideon WRIGHT , son of Hezekiah, and Grandson of Hezekiah and Delia Lee Wright, \par
(b. 1869), m. 1897 to Inez A. TAYLOR. His father, Hezekiah, was born in Randolph \par
County, MO in 1843, m. in 1863 to Anna VANTINE, children: James, Gideon, \par
Charley, Lucy, Rosie, Susie, and Marvin. \par
Gideon and Inez had: Verner, b. 1899; James, b. 1901; Mary, b. 1904; Loran; b. \par
1907; Mae, b. 1909; Eunice, b. 1911; Basil, b. 1913; Carl, b. 1915;Estel, b. \par
1917; Audrey, b. 1919; Jemel, b. 1922 \par
Perhaps someone out there can sort out where these last two fit in the family \par
tree. \par

I noticed on the Wright Tidbits page that you have an FGS with these folks. I \par
have a copy of a will from Deliah (Delilah)'s father, Richard: \par
"Deed of Partition Land of Richard Lee Madison County, Kentucky 1 September 1845 \par
\par
"This Indenture made and entered into this 1st day of September 1845, by and \par
between Ebenezer Titus and Dorothy his wife, late Dorothy Lee, James Stephenson \par
and Polly his wife, late Polly Lee, Thomas McGuire and his wife, late Ann Lee, \par
Sally West, late Sally Lee, Richard Lee, David Lee, Thomas Lee, Grisham Lee, \par
Hezekiah W. Wright and Delila his wife, late Delila Lee..." \par
Robt. E. Lee's father was Henry Lee. His father was also Henry Lee. Robt had an \par
uncle Richard Bland Lee, but he died in 1827. Do you have a source for Delila's \par
relationship to Bobby E? I'd love to see that tie. \par
Thanks, Mark Wright \par

DESCENDENTS OF JOB WRIGHT: \par
Job Wright was born about 1757, we think in Southampton County Virginia. He \par

with their wives and children after 1813 when Newton came back from War of 1812. \par

The document from which the MO Wrights came is entitled 'Amos Fristoe of \par
Stafford Co, Virginia and Pettis County, Missouri and his ancestors and \par
descendants with Allied Families' compiled and published in 1968 by Carrie \par
Jenkins Alexander, Route 2, Malta Bend, MO, 65339. \par

I am not researching the WRIGHT name (at least not yet..you never know who may \par
eventually turn up in your family :-)), but while researching my various \par
families who migrated to Montgomery Co., IL from other areas, I came across a \par
series of articles with a wealth of information for not only me but probably \par
many others. I pass this info on as often as possible when I see queries for \par
some of these surnames on the lists. The WRIGHT information is from: \par
Walter R. Sanders, "Settlers in Montgomery County, Illinois Before 1840", NGSQ , \par
Vols. XXXIX-XL (Spring, 1951-Fall, 1952), p. 13. LDS #0001288 This is a long \par
alphabetical list of names, many with birthdates, and the areas they were in \par
BEFORE coming to Montgomery Co., IL. Any with an * means they were found AFTER \par
Montgomery Co. in another county (possibly adjoining). \par
Charles WRIGHT (b. 1791 NC) \par
Henry WRIGHT (b. 1793; d. Aug 14, 1843) \par
Nathaniel WRIGHT (b. 1808, MA) \par
Joseph WRIGHT (b. Apr 20, 1783 SC; to Warren Co., KY) \par
W. W. WRIGHT (b. Concord, MA) \par
John WRIGHT \par
Margaret WRIGHT \par
James WRIGHT \par
\par
\par
Joel WRIGHT (b. Oct 10, 1792, Hanover, NH; moved to Boston) \par
Mr. and Mrs. Sanders were apparently both professional genealogists, residing in \par
Litchfield, Montgomery Co., IL, and he was head of the Social Science Department \par
at Litchfield High School (at least at the time of printing of these articles). \par
They did extensive research on Montgomery Co. (probably where many of their \par
ancestors settled) and I have run across several publications written by him \par
which have been most helpful. I do not know if either are still living. \par
Hope this may help someone find a missing WRIGHT. \par

Wm. and Paulina's son Wilson drowned in the Nishnabotna River in IA at age 9.\par
Dan's wife Mary supposedly came from TX and had a sister Nancy. While \par
residing in MO, Dan was employed as a miner. Before settling in Humboldt, \par
NE., Dan and Mary homesteaded in S. Dak.\par
I just learned this weekend from an older relative that my Wm. (KRONK) \par
WRIGHT may have been an indentured person. He apparently ran away from his \par
owner and changed the name to WRIGHT to prevent detection.\par
Maybe these little bits will help someone recognize this as their family also.\par
