He was born 17 June 1873 in Blue Ridge, Texas and graduated in 1913 from the medical dept of the University of Oklahoma. He practiced medicine in Eunice, New Mexico. In 1919 he was in San Juan Texas, and spent four years practicing medicine in Kingsbury TX, Bremond TX two years, after that Miranda, TX beginning in 1925. He moved to San Antonio, TX where my mother (child 9 of 11) met my father. He died age 70, 24 Oct 1943 after a fall from a tree. He was a Democrat and a Mason. He served as a member of the Housten (sic) Light Guard on the first Texas Volunteer Infantry in the Spanish American War. Dr J Asa Wright married 28 Nov 1900 to Susan ROSSER born 26 June 1881 in Des Moines, Iowa, dau. (7th child ) of Joseph Rosser & Emily Matilda BUCKLEY Rosser (b. Oct 19, 1843 Gloucester, England). Susan died June 1956 in San Antonio TX. Her information is from a Family Bible page. I am copying this from a book compiled and produced by Alline Elliott in 1986 and with notes pencilled in by my mother. The title is "Travel Back in to Time with Memories of Covered Wagon Days. It has (very poor) photocopies of JV and Elizabeth pictures. The Bible page is also a poor photocopy. I have entered some of the information into my Reunion™ file. At one point I uploaded a partial GEDCOM by way of MyFamily.com. Johnson Vitringer Wright was 2nd child of Asa Wright and was born 19 Oct 1821 Sumpter Co Alabama. Died in Alvin, TX Brasoria Co. TX, 7 Dec 1891 Elizabeth Ann Johnson Wright lived in Alvin, TX after her husband's death until James Asa married, then moved to Eunice TX and stayed with Jessie Alice Wright Hendrix, moved with that family to OK. She died of pneumonia 10 Jan 1918; buried at Riverview Dewey Co. OK in the Hendrix plot. (fr. Cora Hendrix Lewis) Glad to be of help.
