John P. Wright
Generation No. 1
John P. Wright, son of Franklin Wright, was born August 8, 1846 in Jessamine County, Kentucky and died June 11, 1918 in Franklin County, Kentucky. He married Liza Bates. I have found no information on his wife, Lisa, to date. The 1900 Franklin County, Kentucky Census shows John P. Wright with wife, Emmer, and children, John W., Ben O., Willis, and Eliza Ellen. Apparently there were other children since John's obituary said he was survived by his wife, four sons and three daughters. The daughters were residents of Jefferson County, Kentucky,while three sons lived in Frankfort, Kentucky, according to his obituary.
