I get so jealous when I see somesone send a query saying they are just
starting research and nned help with so and so, and then the answer comes to
them in the next post!

I have been trying for 15 years to find the family of Thomas B Wright, who
married Martha Wilson in Mason Co KY in 1823. I think he was born about 1800
but I don't know where. It is possible he is older than I think and had been
married before. He died in Mason Co in 1834. The only child I know for sure
is son Oliver P Wright, who was born 1933, although there is an older son on
the 1830 census and 2 older daughters. Oliver married Amanda Proctor and had
sons Oliver and Henry Hargis Wright, who lived in Marion, Grant, IN after
1900 for the rest of their lives.

Family legend says that they went to KA in covered wagon before ending up in
IN. Who knows?

Does this sound familiar to anyone???????
