Joan Green, I have a dozen or so WRIGHT persons in my files, from Omagh, Ireland to MA to Ohio and Wright County, Iowa. There are two Mary's - Mary Ann 1830 Omagh, d. 1880 Cambridge, MA. and Mary Frances 1855 Cambridgeport, died at age 11 in 1867. There are probably other Mary's but I haven't researched the Wrights - that's another cousin who has a vast head start on our family genealogy. You should check Wright County - since they were the first residents. Happy hunting, Patricia SCHUBERT Zippin >There was indead a Mount Gilead in Seneca County. >It was located in Liberty township. >Although it doesn't appear on the map, it may still be marked by road signs. >It was located along County Road 11, at the intersection with County Road >592. > >Steve Hartzell > >----- Original Message ----- >From: <[email protected]> >To: <SteveHartzell> >Sent: Monday, May 29, 2000 8:48 PM >Subject: Re: Mount Gilead > > > > > > I just picked up a new State of Ohio map at the Auto club last week.
