The children at the bottom of the sheet is Micajah's. For Lynn - the rest of Micajah's family is - Amos Wright 1845 - 1932 Martha Jane Wright 1847 - 1946 Alfred Samuel Wright 1850 - 1938 Thomas Jefferson Wright 1852 - 1906 Julia Ann Wright 1857 - 1945 Mary Genetta Wright 1858 - 1951 Lina Wright 1858 - 1941 Flora Lee Wright 1864 - 1948 Sarah Wright 1867 - 1939 Micajah used a lot of family [siblings] names the names of Mary, Lina and Sarah were names of his sister's Ruth's and Mary Ann's children. Cathy and I just found each other and are related through Clayton Wright, as son of Richard, Sr. Since I've become aware of my Wright family, I believed that there may have been one or two children b. bef Clayton in 1808. Since his parents married after the 1800 census, it would make sense. Elizabeth is a family name and the timeframe would fit. Without the 1810 census showing this family in Rowan County, NC - it's impossible to tell how many children were in the household at the time. Richard - in all probability - still had children at home from his first marriage. At least for a while. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
