Hello,
I've just signed up to RootsChat and found you were researching "Wright - West Ham".
I'm a Wright, born and raised in West Ham, as were my father and grandfather.  Before them, my branch of the Wrights came from Hackney and, further back, from Essex around Saffron Walden, Wimbish and Wimbish Green.
My grandfather and his mother lived in Leytonstone for a while before he married and moved to Stratford/Plaistow.
I know it's a common name, but if you think there's a link with your research I'd be very interested in sharing what I have.
