I am a descendant of Rev. Reuben Wright, a Methodist-Episcopal minister who married Joanna (or Anna) Gilbert in 1798, Sussex Co. VA. They subsequently went to OH (Greene Co. OH) for what appears only a short time, then on to Henry Co. IN where Reuben co-pastored a church in Knightstown, IN. They are in the Wayne Co. IN census in 1850. Their children, that I've found so far, are Margaret Wright who marr Thos B. Miller & lived in Hancock Co. IN. David G. Wright in 1840-50 Hancock Co. IN census is probably a son because he is living next door to the Millers & a Reuben Wright in the 1840 Hancock Co census. Reuben & Anna's son, and my 3rd gr grandfather, James G. Wright, marr Lucinda McComas in 1830 Rush Co. IN. They moved on to Jasper Co. IL in abt 1840 where James was a "circuit-riding" M-E minister. He appears to have died about 1865 & I don't know for certain what happened to Lucinda. I have old photos of this couple, as well as some of their children. My ancestor was Johanna Gilbert Wright who marr Wm N. Arbuckle in Clark Co. IL & later in life she marr Alexander G. Wilson in Lancaster Co. NE. Recent dna studies have shown that this line of Wrights from Reuben is related to the line of Jarrett Wright who married Tabitha Howell in 1791 Brunswick Co. VA. They ended up in Greene Co. GA. Unfortunately, we have no info as to earlier ancestors from this study. ANYone who can share info on these 2 Wright lines, please post or contact deae@consolidated.net. We don't know where to turn from here but will be more than happy to share lots of Wright info from this line & old photos as well. Names associated & around these families are: Gilbert, Barker, Ellis, Stacey, Harris, Randle, Black & Lowery. Thank you very much, Diane Ethridge Conroe, TX
