A lot of that work you cite was done in the first part of the 20th century and is full of errors because access to records was so difficult at that time that a lot of what those researchers needed to see, they couldn't access. If you double check a lot of the work published by those researchers today, you'll find the errors and see that James Wright's son, Samuel did not have any Simeon Wrights in his descendant family and the Simeon Wrights in the descendant family of James' youngest son, Jonathan are the wrong ones to be your family ancestors. Your Simeon Wright family is from the descendant family of Deacon Samuel Wright's eldest son, Sgt. Samuel Wright. I hate to say it, but a lot of what your Grandma did in putting her tree together is in need of fixing up to make it correspond to the truth we know today. I look forward to seeing the scan of your tree and to helping you to make the correct connections and gain access to the latest records and references.
