Hey friend, I have a great deal of info on Lloyd Wright and Joshua Wright. First they are
cusins. Lloyd Wright is the son of Dr. Harrison Wright and Joshua Wright is the son of
James Wright. Dr. Harrison Wright and James Wright are brothers and their father was
Joshua Wright. Interesting civil war fact Lloyd his brother David and brother Zacariah,
all fought for the CSA 20th virginia. David was captured in Dec 1863 and died in the rock
island prison June 15 1864. The interesting fact is that the boys father Dr. Harrison
joined the WV 6th vol on the union side.
The question is why did the boys and their father go for different sides. It is
speculsted that either Harrison joined the union for his services as a Doctor to lesson
the punishment of his sons or because he was captured and forced to fight for the union
because of him being a Doctor. Oh if you are a direct linage to Lloyd then his brother
Zacariah is my Great Great grandfather so hi cuz.
So Lloyd Wrights father was Dr. Harrison Wright and Elizabeth Clevenger Wright and his
father was Joshua Wright and Susan Carroll Wright and his Father was William Wright and
Elizabeth Lloyd Thompson Wright.
Thanks RW...(<:
