The "Wright" family tree!
« on: Sunday 12 June 05 19:12 BST (UK) »

Please can anyone help me find the family of my Great Grandfather Sidney Arthur Wright? :'(  His father Alfred born c1847, mother Harriett Susanna ? born c1850 (Frittenden Kent) , Siblings as follows: Alfred Thomas-c1870, James Ed.-c1873, Sidney-c1876, Alice-c1879, Archie-c1882, Margaret-c1884, Annie-c1886, Nellie-c1890, Florence-c1893, Ida-c1894.

I realise this is quite a list, however, father Alfred was in the Royal Engineers Ordinance Survey and the children were born from Sussex to Cornwall and up to Yorkshire!!
In 1901 census Harriett appears to be listed as widowed and along with her younger children was living at 26 Charles Street Maidstone. I woould dearly love to hear from any remaining family, especially those that may have photos or info on Sidney.  :)

Please can someone help me solve this side of my family tree??

My Great Grandfather Sidney Arthur Wright, born 1876 in Cornwall, had at least 10 brothers and sisters born between 1870 and 1894 in counties across England as his father Alfred was in the R.E. Ordnance Survey Corps.

Sidney was in the Boer War c1901-1905 in Cape Colony, and in 1901 census his mother Harriet Susanna Wright, born Frittenden c1850, was at 26 Charles St Maidstone( I have a portrait photo with this address on). She had the younger children with her- Alice, Archie, Margaret, Annie, Nellie, Florence, Ida; Her son Herbert Walter born c1878 was in Dartford as a trainee P.C.

I would like info on the Wright family, and especially to hear from any descendants who may be able to fill the gaps, thankyou  :)

Hi
I am also stuck on the same on the date of death of Alfred Wright, who was also my great grandfather.  I have been able to go back to 1827 - Thomas Wright his father.   Perhaps you may information I need and vice versa.

Look forward to hearing from you.

Susan & Rosaleen

I am completely new to this, just signed up today.  I have an interest in Elizabeth WRIGHT, born abt 1830-35 I am guessing as she was married Feb. 25/1856 to Richard Miller in Longtown England.  In the event you come across an Elizabeth that fits the time frame would you reply or email me at katiekubota@mcsnet.ca.  Thx.

Unfortunately your Wright family is not the same as ours.
