Hi Reg no dont have cert on them , they also had son Daniel in september 1874 died march 1875 that is why I am thinking they might not be the parents that they might have raised either wrights brothe or sisters child that was born in U.S.A. Yvonne in Australia

Do you have Betsy's marriage cert? It would give her father's name........although such info is not always accurate. If she married in England/Wales, her birthplace would not be recorded. When did Wright and Catherine marry? It is noticeable that their other two children were born fairly close together............ Have you located Wright and Catherine on earlier censuses? Reg

helen, that could be a possibility as I am starting to think that she may not be the daughter of Wright and Catherine Jackson and possibly the daughter of a brother or sister tha was in U.S.A. and they sent her back to be reared by them as I cant find any travel for wright or catherine jackson. Thanks all for the input . Yvonne in Australia.

A GR member is very kindly offering US lookups..........if your girl was still in the US in 1880, she may be able to locate her...........I'll nudge the relevant thread for you Reg
