Sorry I sure don't.

All I have is John Wright is from SC and Sarah Barr is from Ky.

Children:
Thompson, Rebecca and Hezekiah Buren.

I am working on Hezekiah's wife Martha J Stares which is part of my STAIRES line. Martha isn't a direct line of mind, but the sister, so I was following down lines and filled in his parents.

HB Wright moved to Greene Co., Ar somewhere between 1840-1850 so his parents may have gone with him, (Martha's whole family moved, parents and brothers)

There appears to be a whole group of families that moved over to Greene Co., Ar about the same time. Look at the church records, just a hint.

Have you ever used the US Gen Project??

Go to GREENE CO., ARK and look for the Cemetery Page. They have done a great job. All the names are indexed and will tell you which Cemetery they are buried in. Then go to the Cemetery and check the dates.

The two Wrights with names of Newton are relatives of my grandfather, Robert Don Wright. My mother was Hilda Garle Wright, her sister was Stella Mae and brothers, Ralph, Edward Don, and two brothers died young they were Robert and Johnny Wright. The Wrights grew up around Paris, Logan County, Arkansas. There is a Wright Cemetary near Paris. Go to my tree for more info., It is Clements/Phillips Tree. Also you can get info on the Rice/Phillips tree there also. email me at mompolly@gmail.com if you cannot get to the trees.
