Not only did Thomas Twigg Wright come to Australia with his brother Hamilton on the ship " Prima Donna" as free settlers in 1840 , but also, they were followed by their brother John Twigg Wright on the ship "Ganges" in 1841.
I have extensive knowledge of this family in Australia for Thomas & John. I have tracked Hamilton until 1845 and it is family legend that he went to the Eastern States & not hear from again.

I am very interested in the history of the Wrights in Ireland & England as this is where my knowledge is limited.

Some time has passed and I have not heard back from you re: my last post on roots chat Desendants of Thomas Twigg Wright. I think i placed one two many greats in my quote. I am very interested in the two boys Thomas and John and their father and mother (Samuel and Gertruard). Any heads up on these people or can you put me in contact with someone that knows the history in Ireland.

Best regards
Gerard (Gerry) Wright

Thanks for that Muss, but I am not sure this is correct. The Father and Mother of Thomas Twigg Wright was Samuel Wright and his wife was Gertrude Despard Twigg, but it states that Samuel was born in Australia, and I do not think this is correct.

Best regards

Not my Wright family but if you check PRONI (public records office Northern Ireland) Wills there is one for a Gertrude Wright who died in 1892. The image of the will states she leaves her farm to her brother Thomas Wright in “Bunberry” west Australia. This may be your Thomas
