Mary Ann Wright .. mystery 4Th great grandmother help please
« on: Sunday 14 April 24 12:53 BST (UK) »
Hi all on this lovely sunny day ..

I have a 4th great Grandmother who goes by Mary Ann Wright born  between 1824 to 1827 . Clapton or Bethnal Green area…

Death is unknown as I’ve found two in Hackney area but not her . She was still alive in 1911 and is in photos for a wedding

Her dad according to her marriage certificate is William wright

In 1847 Mary married Robert Salmon in Hackney London together they have 7 children including my 3rd great grandad John salmon born 1853 .

I have one DNA match to the salmon family . My great aunt tested on ancestry and found lots of confusing unknown maternal matches .

This week we have a new salmon family match and they have shared matches yay ! 🥳

I have noticed a tree on one match who has Susan wright born 1824, dad is William Wright .. now i am very excited for this match :)

 Can someone help me confirm Susan is Mary Anne’s sister please ?? I have been unable to trace Mary Ann’s parents and siblings… I am hoping this is a new breakthrough !

Thanks all

Who did Susan Wright marry?

I have been looking for marriages of people named Wright with a father named William, who is also a gardener, as Mary Ann's father is.  So far only found Elizabeth Wright marrying George Gillott 8.11.1847 at St Leonard, Shoreditch.
Plenty of other Wrights marrying in the same general area around that time whose fathers are named William, but gardeners are thin on the ground, it seems.
