Robert, I have a Great-grandaunt by the name of Elizabeth C. Lumpkin that married a Abram M. Wright in Pittsylvania CO., VA on 31 Dec 1868. They had a daughter Alice M. Wright born in 1872 in Pittsylvania CO., VA. Abram's father was Christopher Wright and his mother was Elizabeth (Debo) Wright. Any connections?? Don [email protected]

To Donald Lumpkin: Don, In response to your question regarding Abram M. Wright and Christopher Wright, my records list the following information. For convenience, I am also copying the Pittsylvania, Bedford, Goochland, and Wright mailing lists. 1875 (year of death) Abram M. Wright of Pittsylvania County, Virginia, (place of death) was born in about 1831 or 1843 at Pittsylvania County, Virginia, married Elizabeth C. Lumpkins on December 31, 1868, at Pittsylvania County, Virginia, and died before July 5, 1875, at Pittsylvania County, Virginia. His parents were 1851 Christopher Wright of Pittsylvania County, Virginia, and Elizabeth (Debo) Wright. 1851 Christopher Wright of Pittsylvania County, Virginia, was born on Dec 30, 1795, at Bedford County, Virginia, married Elizabeth Debo on Dec 3, 1822, at Pittsylvania County, Virginia, and died between June 17 and Aug 18, 1851, at Pittsylvania County, Virginia. His parents were 1845 Thomas Wright of Pittsylvania County, Virginia, and Sarah Elizabeth (Pullen) Wright. 1845 Thomas Wright of Pittsylvania County, Virginia, was born between March 1762 and March 1763 probably at Goochland County, Virginia, married as his second wife Sarah Elizabeth Pullen on March 30, 1792, at Bedford County, Virginia, and died between Feb 28 & May 19, 1845, at Pittyslvania County, Virginia. His parents were 1814 John Wright of Bedford County, Virginia, and Mary (Pace) Wright. 1814 John Wright of Bedford County, Virginia, was born probably between June 10, 1732, and June 11, 1736, married Mary Pace on January 14, 1756, at Goochland County, Virginia, and died before Dec 26, 1814, at Bedford County, Virginia. His parents were John Wright (Goochland County Carpenter) and Judith (Easly) Wright. John Wright (Goochland County Carpenter) was born probably before 1719, married Judith Easly probably before 1736, and died after 1772. His parents are as yet unidentified, but our current focus is on the family of 1690 Francis Wright of Lancaster County, Virginia, and his wife Mary (Hill) (Wright) Lawrence. I have recently published my work on John Wright (Goochland County Carpenter) and his descendants and a three CD version is available for $25 from my address below. Best wishes, Robert N.
