John Calvin and Martha Jane Johnston Wright




This goes back approx (circa 1860)

John Calvin Wright would be Oliver McCLeod Wright's father. 

John Calvin Wright born 4/22/1824 - died 2/5/1904
Martha Johnston Wright - died 2/5/1904 .  They married 10/9/1850

That would make him my great great grandpa (I think).  Lisa Wright Gault

Martha Johnston Wright was his second wife.  His first wife, Isabel Ramsey died in 1849.  (wonder what happened to her)

This couple had seven children.

Gilbert, John Calvin, Margaret, William, Elmer,  Oliver  (my great grandpa, born 2/20/1866-d 1/21/1946), Euros Cooper (put the middle name for Brian Wright.  Bet he didn't know he named Cooper after a relative.  Good job).

John Wright - my cousin resembles him don't you think?
