I am researching (diligently) the above surnames in Hancock Co. IN. Margaret (WRIGHT)
MILLER was the sister to my 3rd gr grandfather, James Gilbert WRIGHT who married Lucinda
MCCOMAS in 1830, Rush Co. IN. Margaret's husband was Thos B. MILLER. In the 1840
census, Margaret's father, Rev. Reuben WRIGHT, the MILLERS & a David G. WRIGHT
were all living side-by-side.
This David G. WRIGHT was born 1803, VA, married Sarah NIBARGER/NEIBARGER in Greene Co. OH
in 1823. I believe he is another sibling of Margaret & my James. If anyone can tell
me the death date (or any other info) for this David G. WRIGHT, I would appreciate it.
There was a Geo W. WRIGHT in Logan Co. OH to Noble Co. IN & who died in LaGrange Co.
IN, who was another brother. Trying to locate other siblings. Lots of folks are
researching the other lines of Wrights in VA to OH to IN (mine went to Jasper/Edgar Co. IL
in about 1840) but nobody seems to be looking for this line who were very involved with
the M.E. denomination in those days.
Also, I have a photo, that was found in an antique shop in Knightstown, of a Henry McCOMAS
from Hancock Co. who was connected with my Lucinda (MCCOMAS) WRIGHT.
Will share photos or more info with anyone researching any of these families.
Thank you,
