WRIGHT - Hempton Green nr Fakenham
« on: Tuesday 30 March 10 09:44 BST (UK) »
Hi.
    I have just started to research the surname WRIGHT my grandfathers family from Hempton Green near Fakenham.
My grandfather Herbert WRIGHT was born at Hempton 1888 and died at Beeston Regis, Sheringham 1957.
Fathers name = James WRIGHT.
Mothers name = Sarah BISHOP.
Sarah BISHOP was the second wife of James WRIGHT and they married in 1873. It is known there were several brothers and perhaps sisters from both marriages.
Any pointers or information will be a great help and be greatly appreciated

Best Wishes from a damp and gloomy Sheringham :(

Hi

James Wright is shown on FreeReg as bp.24/3/1828 Fakenham, son of James and Maria - abode Hempton.

Loads of Wright baptisms there but the siblings I found were:

Mary Ann bp.20/11/1825
Philip bp.30/12/1830
Charlotte bp.6/9/1833
John Burton bp.30/11/1836
Alfred bp.29/5/1839

Couldn't find a marriage for James and Maria there but the IGI shows a submitted entry for a James Wright and Maria Coxton 29/9/1823 but doesn't state where in Norfolk it was!

Hi both of you! Just stumbled across this site and wonder if any of your research links to Samuel Wright, born Hempton 1782, who m. Frances Mitchell (nee Hooke). My 4x Great Grandparents.
