Hi Diane
I don't see a Reuben Wright in the following family but I do see a Reuchlin
Wright. Also Rush Co and Henry Co. And Milton Wright was a minister. I
hope this is part of your family! It's a great legacy. And I, being a
native Daytonian, am very proud of our native sons, the Wright Brothers!
Good luck!

Hello, I am new to the list & wish to post my lines of interest & research.
My 5th gr grandfather was Reuben Wright of Surry/Sussex Cos VA. Reuben m
Joanna Gilbert in Surry Co VA & they are next found in Wayne & Henry Cos IN
where Reuben is a MEC minister. The other Wrights around this family in the
1850 census are from MD, VA & NC so I suspect he was from the line
originally from MD. This family is closely associated with Harris &
Wilson families. Reuben's son James m Lucinda McComas of Rush Co IN whose
family also were associated with the same denomination. Are there any
Wright researchers on the list that could help me find out more on this
line?
I would very much appreciate any clue as this line has been a real brick
wall for several years.
Thank you,
