Lately, I have spent quite a bit of time perusing Parish records for christenings in England for the years of 1608 and also 1607 and 1609. I cannot find any record of a Richard Wright being christened in Wrington, Somerset, England. Wondering if other researchers have come across any such record? I have found 2 records of a Richard Wright christening in Milwich, Staffordshire, England on 23 Sept. 1607, Father name George; Mother name Ann. The other record is on 21 Feb., 1608 in Wallington, Hertfordshire, England. Both places when mapped seem quite far from Wrington. Has anyone else researched these 2 possibilities any furthur? Also, I did find a grave marked for a Wright at the All Saints Church in Wrington. If you google either the All Saints Church or the Village of Wrington websites, there is a grid layout of the graves in the cemetery. Has anyone investigated this angle yet to see if it is related to our Richard? Tammy Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
