[OneNightWright]

Hi,

Can anyone help me trace my ancestry further back?

I am looking for a William Wright born approx 1806 in or near Wood Newton (coukd also be Newton Wood), near Oundle in Northamtonshire, England.

He married a Mary Tee on 12 July 1827 and had nine children including my 2 x great grandfather Charles Wright.

Children were:
John Wright 1828 - 1891 (married Charlotte Crofts)
Elizabeth Ann Nix (Wright) 1830 - 1922 (married Henry Nix)
Charles Wright 1833 - 1912 (married Eliza Ward)
Alfred Wright 1835 - 1889 (married Jane Grossmith)
Frederick Wright 1837 - ?
George Wright 1840 1844
Mary Amelia Wright 1842 - 1856
Henrietta Wright 1845- 1866
Margaret Wright 1847 - ?

Thanks

Nick

FreeReg is a good starting point https://www.freereg.org.uk/ It is a good idea to tick the "Name Soundex" box at the bottom left of the page to allow for spelling variants.  If you select a county and a parish it also helps to tick the "Nearby places" box.  Do bear in mind that not all records for all parishes have yet been transcribed.
