Bruce, The Samuel age 45 who is the bootmaker in the Flushing 1850 census has wife Mary age 40 and daughter Eliza age 11 and multiple other children living with him. He would have been born in 1805, and Mary born 1810. The Samuel and Mary bur. in Flushing Cemetery were born 1802 and 1809, so they could fit your parameters. There is no Eliza Wright, but the woman who married Samuel Burrage Reed was Eliza Wright, died as Eliza Reed, and she is there. Samuel d. 1869 so he does not show up in the 1870 census. It looks like Mary is living with a Vandewater family in Hempsted by then. There are also some Webbs in the family plot, which is incidentally, owned by Samuel Wright, surely yours. Now, what is your connection to these folks? Do they sound like a match? Carol
