bullet  General Notes:

Isaac was in the Revolutionary War. He moved to Jefferson Co., TN where he married. Isaac had a son, John Prior born in 1803. In 1812 they moved to Ohio. In 1822, John Prior married Hephsiba Coats. In 1824 Isaac, son John and family moved to Illinois. The author of a addedum to "The Annals of Newberry" says that he saw his great uncle Isaac Wright in 1834, then being a little, old, dingy man of an intemperate nature. By 1838, they moved to Indiana and bought 160 acres. It was here they lived when he applied for a pension on Sep 10, 1838. Isaac and his wife Susannah died there. Son, John purchased and lived on a different 160 acres four years after moving there between Russiaville and New London. It is where John and his wife raised thirteen children and where the old Wright Homestead still stood at the 1908 reunion. (C-945, 1991)
