Hello Vivian, I also descend from Rachel Wells and John Wright and am interested in corresponding with you. Right now I am very busy catching up after a month!! away from home. I will contact you probably in about a week or 10 days. I have a mysterious ancestor named Hannah Wright, who is listed on many trees as born in Pennsylvania in 1802. Her parents are James Wright and Catherine Guinn who lived in East Tennessee and her siblings all seem to be born there!

That will be great. I am still collecting info. I am going to be gone myself the first week of November, so will be slowing down on the genealogy, but nothing better than coming home refreshed and ready to go at it again. Tennessee sounds interesting.
