Bonnie,
Your Elizabeth Isabella Wright, b. abt 1853, was the daughter of Sarah
Chapman, b. abt 1829, d. aft 1880, and William Wright, b. abt 1821, d. bet.
1860-1879. Sarah Chapman is the niece of my gggrandmother, Angeline
Chapman(m. John Leach), daughter of Robert Chapman and Ellizabeth (unk last
name). Sarah's parents were William Chapman and Elizabeth Fisher.
Sarah Chapman and William Wright were married Dec 8, 1850 in Campbell
County, TN.

Sarah married John Bailey after William and in 1870. Her kids are listed as
Bailey but they are all Wrights.
1870 Campbell County census. The children listed should have the surname of
Wright.

I have not been able to find Sarah Prater's parents, Isabella and Benjamin
Prater in the 1880 census.

One of the benefits of helping someone else search is that sometimes you
find new sprouts on your own tree like I did this time. I have more info on
the Chapmans if you want it.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH! Those are the people I'm looking for....Sarah P. Comer

daughter of Elizabeth Isabella Wright and Benjamin F. Prater (b. 1847-died
unknown).
