Message Board Post:

I am always interested in any Wright named Micajah or Makajer or Migager or any variation on that. Do you have any more details on yours? Mine is too young to make your marriage date, unfortunately. Do you have any info on Charles & Migager's parents?

My family is:
Lot WRIGHT (1811 PA - 1889 CA) md (1833, Hancock Co, IN) Mary MARTIN (1809 KY - 1859 IN)
Their children:
1. Micajah M. Wright (1834 - ?) md Mary E Wright, 1861
2. Ethan W. 'Will' Wright (1836 - abt 1850)
3. Daniel Gard Wright (1838 - 1913 CA) md Emily Butler
4. John Simeon Wright (1840 - 1919 CA) md Susan Franklin
5. Mary J. Wright (1844 - 1869 IN) md 1) Geo. Richardson, 2) Wm Barnard
6. Jehu L. Wright (1846 - ?)
7. Addison F. Wright (1848 - ?) md Mary Gant

All the children were in the 1860 census in Hancock county Indiana except Will, who died young. Dan and John Simeon went to California in the 1870s, as did dad Lot Wright. Addison and Mary Gant Wright went to Crawford county, KS by 1882, no further traces. Mary J. died in Hancock co. IN, as did their mother Mary Martin Wright.

Micajah isn't that common a name. It would be nice if I even found a relative it came from....

Thanks. Beth
