Biography

• Name
  • His full name appears to be William Rightman Bagley^[1][5], but he reported his name as Rightman Bagley for the 1850 US Census^[2], and he was recorded as Wrightman Bagley (same as his father) in the 1852 court case that divided up his father's land^[3].

  • 1790 - Many profiles for him have his birth in 1790, but with no evidence for it.

• Residences
