John WRIGHT

Abt 1740 -

• Birth	Abt 1740  [1]
  Note	The George Wright document states: 1) "This John died before 1779 because his widow is listed in the 1779 tax records for Menallen Township." 2) This John Wright was called "Stone House Johnny" and was supposedly a veteran of the Revolutionary War in spite of his being a Quaker. John's will is on file in Will Book C, p. 131 in Adams Co., PA. It was written 15-Aug-1817 and probated 4-Jul-1820. Perhaps the author has the father and son mixed up.
