Hi, would anyone have any information on George Redwood Wright or his family? In 1861 they were in the Isle of Thanet Union Workhouse - he is described as a discharged Marine and I believe that he died before the 1871 Census. His daughter Maria married Frederick Tom Porter and they lived in St Margaret's Bay until at least 1901. They then moved to Shirley, Southampton. I have traced back to where the Redwood name enters the family but would be grateful for any information on the Wrights or the Porters, also anything on Emma Redwood Wright (another of George's daughters) who married Samuel Bushell (a retired ship's master and considerably older than Emma). They had a daughter Harriet, born a few months before they married (the family legend has it that they eloped). Hope someone can help - both Minster and Monkton feature in family "legend" but sadly there is no-one left who can remember any details. Kind regards Pam Newton
