Sources
- A person familiar with the Wright family living on Amherst island related this information to my brother during his visit there.
- personal diary of son, George Nelson Wright. Diary held by the National Archives of Canada in Ottawa. My brother, Scott William Wright has read the entire diary and reported this fact.
I have obtained a digital copy of the diary and have read the entire document. I discovered an offspring (“illegitimate child”) and other information from this document.
I am searching for information about this George’s siblings and parents.
