If I am not mistaken the Wrights of Vermont came originally from Massachusettes and are the descendants of Deacon Samuel Wright. One descendent Ebenezer and his two sons refused to sign the Decloration of Independence and the result was that Vermont remained a soveriegn nations for seven years after the Revolutionary War. He and his family had to flee to Cornwall Ontario as United Empire Loyalists.

Hello. I don't know where to begin on these lines because I have multiple lines, but one set are pretty married in. The married in bunch are also tied in with Wood, Hylton (in OR, but also VA/WV) and Ownbey's. Some with Rees(e) which were in VA, OH and IN. And then Haworth, Dillon and some others. Another branch goes back from Olive Orinda Wright m. to John Carlie Hosier. Her parents were Benjamin Wright and Phe(o)be Hayes and this family seems to be from VT. I have a few more, but these are the main ones.

Monday Madness was rather quiet. I had no luck looking for Shirley's William Wright in NY. Nor any luck looking for her Dexter Wright. It has been quietly driving us mad.
Dexter is the son of Henry and Phebe Wright whom is the son of William Wright and Orilla Wilson Wright.

1880 census has Dexter Wright in Bainbridge Chenango NY age 14 born about 1866

Father Henry born NY mother Phebe born NY
single white male living at home with parents and siblings.

William age 18
Charles 16
Dexter 14
Frank 10.

Two boys daughtered out we are looking for descendants of Dexter if there were any and William.

My brickwall is Elizabeth WRIGHT (1772-1843) in Philadelphia area. She married 1st William ASHTON; 2nd Jonathan WHITE. But she came from "nowhere"; no families fit. Or I should say she "fits" one family nicely, but it's well-documented and she's not a part of it. Another Elizabeth from NJ is born 4 days before my Elizabeth, but "someone" said she died ca 1796; no documentation that I can find.
