Surnames: DILLON WRIGHT DAVIS Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/gAC.2ACE/393.657.1031.1.1.1.1 Message Board Post: I also have James WRIGHT Sr. (b. 1671, d. 1759) in another line, married to Mary DAVIS, with a Lydia as their youngest child. You seem to be suggesting that this daughter is the same Lydia B. that married Daniel DILLON (b. 1713, d. 1805). If so, how did you establish that? The problem is that I have James's daughter Lydia as having been born in Maryland (1730) and dying in Virginia (1778), but Daniel's wife Lydia B. as having lived her whole life in North Carolina (1723-1800). Correct me if I have made an incorrect deduction here. I don't have the Edward WRIGHT - Hannah DILLON marriage that you refer to in my database to confirm that we are in fact talking about the same individuals. It gets very confusing trying to sort these people out because, as you have pointed out, these families keep intermarrying, and they use the same given names in every family, every generation.
