Hi Sue & Muss
Yes I do have 9 children listed for Joel & Fanny Wright.
The last child Louisa was born 2 months after Joel's death.
His death certificate states 2 males and 3 females living, 3 males deceased. Add Louisa and that's 9.
Muss - 2 issue resided in the Bulli area which ties in nicely with the John Williams Obit link you posted. Thank you
