I am looking for information on a James Right(ca 1823 IN) and America McDowell (ca 1822
IN). They were married on 22 Oct 1846 Jefferson,Co IN. They are on the 1850 Jefferson Co.,
Shelby Twp., census as James Right and America Right. There are a number of Rights in the
area at this time, wondering if they might be related. On the 1860 census they are in
Cross Plains, Brown Twp., Ripley Co., IN, last name is spelled Wright. They have 7 living
children at this time, Sarah F, William B.M., *Mary Ellen (Mollie), Malinda, Henry,
James,and Elizabeth. In 1920 Mary Ellen said she had 13 brothers and sisters. I am unable
to locate the family on the 1870 census(yet). Any information on them and their children
will be appreciated, thanks.
