Nathaniel Wright

[MikeDavies38]

I am a descendant of Nathaniel Wright who's name first appears in Wrexham in 1696 with the birth of his son, also Nathaniel. His occupation then was a butcher but later changed to a Glazier.
I am looking for the father of the first Nathaniel and his occupation. There was a Nathanial Wright, born in 1671 in Dudleston Heath, Ellesmere who had 2 brothers, John and William? and their father was also Nathaniel Wright. He married Ursula ? of Spun Hill, Ellesmere in 1669. He was a butcher and I would like to find out if this Nathaniel was the man I am looking for.  The 1696 Nathaniel was doing business in the Penley/Hanmer area in the early 18th century.
Thank you.
John Wright

A lot of the Wellington Wrights were dyers. Francis was a dyer of Leegomery.

Hello Bristolloggerheads,
Francis Wright of Wellington.
A group of men formed the Prespertarian religious movement. There is good reading of various Wright's in the book I own called Regime & Religion Shrewsbury 1400 - 1700 by Barbara Coulton.
I really should do more work with the Wright family. I think the various Wright's can be connected.
My Wright's were Quakers, Mr Henry Wright, a tobacco seller 1660's Shrewsbury. I have found no birth, and it is possible married three times. Also of High Ercall.
 Also there is a Pedigree by Joseph Morris, Wright of Shrewsbury. MF 153  Vol. 8 page 4185
