Surname: WRIGHT, TONEY
-------------------------
My g-grandfather was Isaac J. Wright. He was born in Indiana in January
1819. Married Rhoda Toney in Preble Co., OH in 1842. Preble is next to
Wayne Co., IN and close to Randolph Co. IN. I have a copy of the book "History
of Randolph Co., Indiana" by Tucker. It mentions many Wrights, but I have
yet been able to connect any of them with Isaac J. Wright. Isaac moved
to Richland WI about 1853 after a brief stay in Illinois. He was a United
Brethern minister. I believe he may have had roots in Greenville TN, which
he visited for a brief period, 1875-1879. His children were named William
T., Melinda, Isaac Jesse, Martha Ann and John Calvin Wright.
