Hello,
I am new to the list & wish to post my family of interest. George W. WRIGHT was in
the 1880 census for Marshall Co., listed as a "farmer" & having been born in
abt 1818 in VA. His first wife was Elizabeth but in this census, he was marr to an Emelia
with a dau, Patience, in the h/h. One of Geo & Elizabeth's daughters, Mary
married a Charles F. OSBORN, went to MO & on to MT where both died.
George was the brother to my 3rd gr grandfather, James WRIGHT, a Methodist-Episcopal
minister in Rush Co. IN before moving on to Jasper Co. IL. These Wrights were closely
associated with this denomination & their father, Reuben WRIGHT, was a minister in
Knightstown. They were from VA originally & went to OH before moving to IN &
some to IL. George had lived in Logan Co. OH, Noble Co. IN & LaGrange Co. IN before
moving to Marshall Co.
Any help or info appreciated. Have more info on these folks & pictures to share with
anyone connected to my WRIGHTS and/or OSBORNS. I believe that Geo probably died in
Marshall Co. & I would like to know also if there is a death index available.
Thank you,
