    3. My sister-in-law's WRIGHT go from OR. to Imperial Valley, CA. to OK., I am not sure where before that. Throw in the TEAGUE surname and some Native American somewhere, and you two may be "on the same page".

    3. :-( My Wrights are from KY and then Ilinois, where somehow my ggg grandmother met E.V. Williams and they got married and move to Wisconsin. I lost after her father, Andrew Wright. I know he's from KY, but I don't know where.
