From: "Paul Wright" <pwrigh01(a)tranquility.net>
I would like to see if this family appears in earlier census records
(1850, 1860, 1870) and/or if there is birth info for
Charles. He is my main area of interest.
I am looking for a Charles Riley Wright born in April 1860 or 1863 in IN. I
have been hunting for about 15 years with no luck and think he might have
been orphaned in his teens. I don't have much info on him as he died when he
was 40.
