General Notes: Husband - Robert Wright


After his first marriage, he continued to live for some thirty years on the home place, the dwelling being an old log cabin, and then erected a commodious residence, which was well situated, and equipped with all modern improvements. The farm he cleared up and improved with his own hands.
He and his wife were originally connected with the Associate Church, but in later years they were members of the United Presbyterian Church at South Buffalo, he being one of its most influential supporters, and a trustee of same.
Mr. Wright always took an active part in politics, first as a Whig, then as a member of the Liberty party, and in later years as a Republican.
