Edmond Wright

Edmond appears in 1663 and 1673 as a householder in Banks.


Events


Date of Baptism: 5 November 1616.

Place of Baptism: North Meols, Lancashire (St Cuthbert).

The baptism is recorded in the parish register.


Date of Burial: uncertain.

Place of Burial: North Meols, Lancashire (St Cuthbert).

There are burials of an Edmond Wright 7 December 1685 and 7 March 1685/6. An earlier burial of an Edmond Wright on 7 September 1680 could conceivably also have been Edmond's, if Eliza below was a child of a different family.


Relationships


(probable) Father: Richard Wright.

(probable) Mother: Ellen Norris.

Richard's name is given in Edmond's baptism record. Ellen is named in her marriage record. Given that more than one Edmond Wright was buried in North Meols in the 1680s, it is possible that these were the parents of another Edmond.


Spouse: unknown.
