Hi, Nancy, So pleased to receive your message.I do not have Samuel Lancaster's will. My sister, Ruth Wright Kilgore, now deceased and Minnie Lancaster did the research on our Lancaster line.I am now living closer to Nashville and plan to bring her research papers the next time I go to Nashville.It may be in her papers.I have a list of the items sold and who bought and what was paid for each item after he died.I also have letters that Agnes Lancaster Bates wrote to my great grandmother, Elizabeth Lancaster Wright.If you would like copies of the letters or any information I have, I will be so happy to send it to you.Just let me know.
Elizabeth H b 13 Dec. 1813 in SC m ca 1830 to Thompson Wright b ca 1806 in Tn; Julia (Juliette) b ca 1817 in Tn m. William Scott; Martha b ca 1821 in Tn m Joel P. Morrison; Hulda (Mahulda) b ca 1822 in Tn m James Morgan; Agnes Eleanor b 11 July 1828 in Tn d 4 March 1913 in Nasvhille m Lewis Bates.
My sister and neither have I been able to find out for sure who was the father of our Thompson Wright.There were several Thompson Wrights. In fact Thompson Wright b 30 Dec. 1779 m Clementine Caroline Smith b 13 Sept 1805 had Thompson Jacob Wright b 29 June 1832 (too young to be my Thompson Wright)Could Thompson Wright b 30 Dec. 1779 been married before (Clementine was 26 yrs younger) and had my Thompson Wright b ca 1806.I think it is a good possibility but I can't prove it.My sister never had any doubt that Rebecca Thompson and Isaac Wright were the grandparents of our Thompson Wright. Thompson Wright b 1779 was their son.I am hoping to find her proof of this in her papers. I am collecting all information on all Thompson Wrights in hopes someday the missing pieces will fall in place.
I don't know anything about Isaac Lancaster who married Dorinda Shipp.
I am very anxious to learn what you know on our Walker line.Lots of missing pieces in this line.What is your Wright line.
Please let me know what you have on any of these lines and I will be so happy to send you anything I have that you don't have.Very anxious to know your Wright line and your Walker information.Many thanks for writing.Dorothy Wright Farris
