3106 Wright. The history of Jefferson Co., N.Y., states that Peter Wright lived in Newport, R. I., many years; was a captain in the Rev. War; removed to Bennington Co., Vt., where he died June 7, 1821, aged 8- years. His wife, Elizabeth, died 1819, aged 7t years. He had six children, one of them, Daniel, born Newport,R.I., went to Vt., but later removed to HerkimerCo., N. Y., where he cleared a farm; died in Knox Co., Ohio, in 1835, aged 65 years. He served in the War of 1812; commanded a regiment in Herkimer Co., N. Y., At Sackett's Harbor; married four times. The children of Daniel and Lois (Cobb) Wright, his third wife were: Seaman, and Erastus; What were the names of the other children of Peter. There was a Seaman Wright who was born Shaftsbury, Bennington Co., Vt., in 1782; went to Wyoming Co., N. Y.m where he died in 1846 at Perry. He had a brother, John, who lived in Herkimer Co., N. Y., and moved to Groveland, Livingston Co., N. Y., in 1817, and died in 1847. He was married twice; and I have the record of his children. I have been told that John and Susanna had a brother, Daniel, also a sister, who married Mr. Sweet, and lived at Perry, Wyoming Co., N. Y. Can this Peter be verified as a Rev. Soldier; if so, who were his wife and children? Perhaps his wife was Elizabeth Seaman. I am told that the parents of John and Seaman Wright were buried in Shaftsbury Valley, Vt., near where they lived. If Peter Wright was a Rev. Soldier he may have been served in R.I. or in Vt. Some research may locate his grave.
