Johannah's sister Mary Ann Potter married John [Jack] Wright, they also lived Nyngan area and then Brewarrina and I think lived on the mission at Brewarrina, they had many children and John lived to be about 116 years old. They had a daughter that I know of Janet who married Robert McHughes at Nyngan in 1902.

Hi there,

Welcome to Rootschat.

I am not a family member, just a regular who looks up my own resources to help.      I am not sure if I am reading your post correctly, but re Louisa WRIGHT who died 16 Jan 1938,  can you explain what you mean when you wrote "nordswharf95 or 76 of nyngan" .....  I am guessing you mean she died at Nords Wharf aged either 95 years or 76 years, and that she was originally from Nyngan.... but I am not sure. 
 

Cheers,  JM

Yes, you use the modify button  :)  you have 24 hours to modify and then after that it will need a moderator's consideration.

Interested in your post as I am descended from a Wright in the same area though I can not add any additional information to what you know, except this family I think features in Tindale Genealogy Reports.
I am searching the family of Frederick James Wright or James Wright 1818-1875.
He would marry at Ballandean NSW in 1848,  this area is now in Queensland after the state formation.
He was born on country - Wiradjuri lands , has no known mother or father , no birth record and is believed to be of Aboriginal descent with a white father. Frederick/James would die after a tree fell on him while collecting honey, he was shepherding at Nanima Eugowra, autopsy register exists, but no death certificate or grave.
I have wondered if these two lines are somehow connected.

James Wright born 1818 in London came to Australia as a convict on "Emma Eugenia" in 1838.
He wed widow Hannah Norton in 1848. They worked as shepherds at Maryland property. They had a very large family which including at least 3 sets of twins.
James died at Eugowra in 1875 when a tree fell on him.
