Misc. Notes
By 1854 he had moved to Augusta, Georgia, with his parents who on 21 May 1854 were confirmed as members of St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Augusta. He moved to Marietta, Georgia, with his family from 1860, when he was 10 years old, to no later than 1867, when the family returned to Augusta. His father, J. S. Wright, in a 21 Mar 1863 letter from Havana, Cuba, calls him "Derry” and indicates he and Lou are the two youngest children, the next oldest is Sallie, and the fourth oldest is Miss Hal. On 5 April 1868 he was confirmed a member of St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Augusta, Georgia by The Right Reverend John W. Beckwith, the brother of Dr. T. Stanly Beckwith. ®129, ®118 In 1870 he is a single 20 year old clerk in a cotton house ®124, and lives with his father, John S. Wright, 51, mother Mary Isabelle Eve Wright, 45, and siblings Harriet Emma (Hal), 24, Sarah Laura, 22, and Louisa Eve, 15, in Ward 1, Augusta. He is a clerk in a cotton house, possibly the same business at which his father was a book keeper. ®124 He does not live with his family in Augusta in 1880. ®89 On 7 June 1880 he is a 30 year old Ny Signal Officer living with his wife Harriett, 31, at 370 Chapel Street, New Haven, Connecticut. He and his parents were born in Georgia and she and her parents were born in Virginia. ®1949 On 5 June 1900 he is a 50 year old accountant renting with his wife Harriet at 515 Stevenson Street, San Francisco, California. They have been married 26 years and have had no children. ®1954 Neither he or his wife Harriet are on the 1920 census.

There is a William D. Wright (b.Mar 1849-GA) in 1880, 1900 and 1910 Cobb Co., GA
but he is not married to a Hattie. He is married to Almeda G. (b.Apr 1839) and
she is about 10 years older than he. They had 3 children, William L.(b.Sept 1872),
Parilla S. (b.Oct 1874) and Charles G. (b.Oct 1876).
William and Almeda state on the 1900 census that they have been married for
29yrs. In 1910 William is now married to Rachel (b.@1858 GA) and they have been
married for 2yrs.
On 1880 and 1910 census William is a Farmer and on the 1900 he is a Physician.
His son William is also a Physician on the 1900 census and he is married to
Isabelle (b.Jun 1876-GA)for 1yr.
In 1910 Charles is living next door to William and Rachel and he is married to
Minnie (b.@ 1878-GA) and they have 6 children (Eugene-9, Ralph-8, Louise-7,
Joseph-5, Harvey-4, George-11/12).
On the WWI Draft Registration Charlie Gilmer Wright was b. 8 Oct 1876 and was
living in Sumter Co., GA.
Not sure if these are the people you seek but he was definitely the only William
D. Wright I came across of that age range.
