Ok

So you have John Wright Marrying Mary Wright in 1915 you say she lied about her name?

She had a child in 1907 called Mary ?? how do you know this are you decended from her?

Why would this child be called Wright ?

If her name was not wright why would she use that name 4 years before she married unless they were living together?

Is this another of their children?

Births Dec 1916
Wright Albert Barnes W.Derby 8b 67

Ozi

There is a possibility that Mary the younger was adopted by the Wrights, and she is the child of another relationship.

Maybe Carolyn is having a think about the adoption possibility.

I'd love to know who Carolyn is descended from. As she has the younger Mary's birth cert, I guess from her.

No Ozi Carolyn does not have the cert so it is like looking for a needle in a haystack at the moment

"No I don't have a birth cert for either Mary the elder or Mary the younger. Mary born in c1887 was Barnes at birth."

Forgot that bit, thanks jax.

So how does Carolyn know all the other info? Looks like a cert is needed.
