    1. WRIGHT FAMILY
    2. I am not related to the Wright family but am interested in them. My father, Franklin Nerren born 1898 in Lincoln County, Tennessee, lived with a Mr. Wright for about 2 years. This Mr. Wright lived between Huntsville and Lincoln County, and was a farmer. When my Dad came back from the 1st World War, he visited with Mr. Wright for a few days. He was very good to my father. I have no idea of his first name. But I do know that after the war he was an older man and I think his wife had died by then. His son and daughter-in-law lived with him. Any ideas on who he could have been? Peggy Nerren Grisamore [email protected]

Most of them are buried in the "old" Huntsville cemetery (another name then), and scattered over Madison, Limestong, Morgan, Lauderdale, and Lawrence counties in "the bend of the river." Even if you & I don't link together, I'm interested in all I can learn about this family to help me distinguish them from my own WRIGHT, ELLIOTT, PERRY, etc., families that came in that migration.

    2. Doug Garber
    3. Hello Madison County, Presently, members of the HENRY surname list are building a web site that contains an index of their HENRYs. When completed, it should be helpful to many HENRY family historians. I have been asked to conduct a search for links to HENRY online resources like personal web pages, and county and local genealogy association resource pages. If you have substantial HENRY information on your web page or know of HENRY information on your county or other local web site, please send the links to Judy Henry at [email protected] , so that they might be included in the new HENRY site. If you have some HENRY data that is not on a website, you may wish to subscribe to the list by sending an email to: [email protected] containing as the only text the word "subscribe" (no quotes) in the body of the message. After you get a message confirming your subscription, post your information by email to [email protected] . Thank you.
