Hi all on this lovely sunny day ..
I have a 4th great Grandmother who goes by Mary Ann Wright born between 1824 to 1827 . Clapton or Bethnal Green area…
Death is unknown as I’ve found two in Hackney area but not her . She was still alive in 1911 and is in photos for a wedding
Her dad according to her marriage certificate is William wright
In 1847 Mary married Robert Salmon in Hackney London together they have 7 children including my 3rd great grandad John salmon born 1853 .
I have one DNA match to the salmon family . My great aunt tested on ancestry and found lots of confusing unknown maternal matches .
This week we have a new salmon family match and they have shared matches yay ! 🥳
I have noticed a tree on one match who has Susan wright born 1824, dad is William Wright .. now i am very excited for this match :)
Can someone help me confirm Susan is Mary Anne’s sister please ?? I have been unable to trace Mary Ann’s parents and siblings… I am hoping this is a new breakthrough !
Thanks all

Who did Susan Wright marry?
I have been looking for marriages of people named Wright with a father named William, who is also a gardener, as Mary Ann's father is. So far only found Elizabeth Wright marrying George Gillott 8.11.1847 at St Leonard, Shoreditch.
Plenty of other Wrights marrying in the same general area around that time whose fathers are named William, but gardeners are thin on the ground, it seems.

Thank you for this looks like Caroline is possibly Mary Ann sibling too. And found a dna match who’s tree has Caroline

I think Caroline is Thomas Wright's wife. Thomas (being older than Susan) was probably already married by 1841, so the witnesses to Susan's marriage - T. Wright and Caroline Wright would be her brother and s-i-l.
Thomas Wright 24 bachelor s/o William Wright gardener married Caroline Smith 28 widow d/o Francis Saunders at Walthamstow 18 November 1840. (transcript only - witnesses not included)
Caroline Wright in censuses gives her birthplace as Dunstable, Bedfordshire. There is a matching baptism of Caroline Saunders d/o Francis and Martha in 1812, and a marriage at Dunstable in 1831 of Caroline Saunders to Thomas Smith.
