Hello, I just wanted to let you know I have extensive information on Wrights from Iowa,Indiana and Illinois. I do not think they were Belgium but I Have not really gone through all the documents yet. Some of the First names I have for this are Richard Nancy Martha Peter Levi James Frankie David Emsley Rachel Sara Phoebe Mary Elizabeth Jesse Delilah Solomon These are all in the 1700 and 1800 but my grandmother was married to a Wright and her name was Cora Ethel Wright and she lived in Ft. Madison Iowa for a long time and died in Missouri. If you have a special name you would like me to look for, Feel free to get in touch with me.
