Thanks Conni, My William Mitchell did not marry a Elizabeth Wright ,but his son John W. Mitchell did. I got that information mixed up the other day.

My Wright connection is Amelia Mitchell who married William Wright. I think they were married in Grainger County but don't have any definite information/date. It was their son, William Mitchell Wright who was in Madison County, Missouri when "Old William" as we call him died about 1852. I don't have any other Wright connections but then again I don't have all the branches documented.

Donna - Thanks for responding. My Mitchell/Wright link is between Amelia Mitchell who married William Wright. Unfortunately I don't know where they lived after their marriage. Just the fact that their son, William Mitchel Wright, lived in Madison County, Missouri and was the executor for his grandfather, William Mitchell's estate when he died about 1854.
