I got a note from Hunting for Bears and found that there is a Bryant WRIGHT in Cumberland County, but he must be Hiram WRIGHT's father. How would I find this out? The ages are right, the dates are right, the place is right. Also I need to find a marriage bond or certificate to find out if indeed these are the right line of mine. How do I go about doing that? Bryant WRIGHT would have been probably in the 1820,30, 40 and 50 census for Cumberland County. Does someone have access to these census'? If I could locate him with a son named Hiram then I would have my line and also I would be able to find where Bryant came from. Also, one other ?? when did Carolina split to become North C and South C? Margaret There is only one other alternative to getting older, and I'm not ready for that yet. I'm too busy diggin my roots and searching for more limbs to my tree. Diggin for Stewart, McConnell, Inglis, Herring, MacFarlane, Jones,and others on paternal side, Addison,Wright,Newell,McDaniel,Foster,Renfro on maternal side and others. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp
