General Notes: Husband - John W. Wright

---

He was born at Newcastle, DE, and when quite small was brought by his parents to Glen Hope, PA, in whose schools he acquired a good prac­tical literary education. With his uncle, John Keagy, of Harrisburg, PA, he began the study of medicine, but never completed the course. For a number of years he was one of the most proficient teachers of the county, and as a leading and influential citizen he took quite a prominent part in public affairs. He was elected county treasurer, which office he filled two terms, and on his return to Glen Hope was elected justice of the peace, serving in that ca­pacity for a quarter of a century. As a business man he was enterprising, energetic and indus­trious, and succeeded in accumulating a hand­some competence.

In 1854, with some friends, she crossed the Atlantic to Philadelphia, PA, whence she proceeded to the home of an uncle, David Mullin, in Columbia, Lancaster County, PA, later joining another uncle, Thomas Mul­lin, in Becaria township, Clearfield County. She lived with him until his death, and continued to reside in the same house until her marriage, mak­ing her home with her brother, James C. Mullin, who came to the New World ten years after her arrival.
