Diane: I have a Henrietta Wright in my Galena Twp. Jasper Co. MO records, born ca 1856. Her mother was Harriet Wheeler and her father was Josiah S. Wright. Is there any chance that this Henrietta is the same person as your gg grandmother's sister? Who was her sister? The Henrietta Wright in my records had an older sister named Olive Wright, who married George Davison in 1873. The coincidence of the names Henrietta and Harriet caught my eye. Nancy Sicotte
Harriett Finch's mother was Henrietta Wright, b 1842, in Jasper Co. IL. She married a Wm Finch in 1863, Champaign Co. IL. This Henrietta's parents were Lucinda (McComas) Wright & James Wright (he was a M-E minister) of Jasper Co. IL. The Wrights had earlier been in Rush Co. IN, coming originally from VA. The Finchs lived in Switzerland Co. IN & Greene Co. MO & were in the Jasper Co. MO census in 1910. It really is a coincidence in names but doesn't appear to be the same lady.
