I subscribe to the free weekly RootsWeb Review, and in today's weekly newsletter there was a listing for a website for: The WRIGHT families of Overton and Fentress counties, Tennessee, by Jerry Wright Jordan. I thought this might be of use for those researching this family. There are a lot of other families listed as well, and sources for the information is shown, including census records. The website is: _http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~nataletne/Overton/_ (http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~nataletne/Overton/)

Thank you. A. B. Wright of Fentress and Morgan Counties was my great great grandfather. My great grandmother was his daughter Mary Jane Wright Peters. My grandfather was Timothy Victor Hugo Peters, son of Mary Jane and Tobias Peters.

Marilyn, Have you ever looked up the deed information on the various farms that A. B. Wright owned in Fentress County? There is one farm that he bought in 1857 and sold in 1868 that I would like to have the deed record to. He refers to this place on pages 35-36 and page 74 in his autobiography. I believe that he sold the farm to my g-g-grandmother, Zilpha Holbert Beaty, and would also likek to know who he bought it from.
