Exploratory Data Analysis: John William Wright (1860-1945)

John William Wright (1860-1945) was my maternal 2nd-great grandfather.  What follows is an exploratory analysis of the information I have collected about him.

1. Vital Records

     1.1. Birth Certificate

          John was born February 21, 1860 in Brown County, Ohio1.

          The State of Ohio did not require birth certificates until 1867.
          

          1.1.1. Birth Notice in Newspaper

               I have not been able to locate any contemporary newspaper accounts of John's birth.

          1.1.2. Bible Record

               I am not aware of any surviving Bible record of the Wright family.  My understanding of family lore was that the John Wright family Bible was purposely destroyed by a daughter-in-law.

          1.1.3. Baptismal Record

               I am not aware of any baptismal records for John at this time.  The  Wright's were associated with of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in Alexandria, but I do not know of their church affiliation in Brown County, Ohio.

          1.1.4. Adoption Record

               There is no indication that John was adopted.

     1.2. Marriage license

          John married on May 13, 1888 in Madison County, Indiana to Ellen King1,2.  I didn't realize that I don't have a copy of their marriage license from Madison County.  Will add that to my list of "to-do" items for my next research trip.

          John married on May 13, 1922 in Madison County, Indiana to Margaret (Lewis) Willetts.  This marriage was the subject of a previous post.  Need to work through my notes and source this information in my database.

          1.2.1. Marriage notice in newspaper

               Will need to search out contemporary newspapers to see if their nuptials were mentioned.

          1.2.2. Anniversary notice

               John and Ellen's 25th wedding anniversary would have been May 13, 1913.  Need to search the local newspapers to see mention was made.

          1.2.3. Divorce decree

               Need to search court records in Madison County, Indiana for a divorce decree for John and second wife.

     1.3. Death Certificate

          John died June 5, 1945 in Monroe Township, Madison County, Indiana1.  Need to obtain a copy of his death certificate from the Madison County Health Department.

          1.3.1. Obituary in newspaper

               John's obituary appeared in the June 6, 1945 edition of the Alexandria Times Tribune in Alexandria, Indiana1.

               I need to search other local area newspapers to see if his death was mentioned as well.

          1.3.2. Funeral home records

               According to his obituary, the funeral was handled by the Robert C. Gipe funeral home in Alexandria.  Need to check with the local historical society to see if they have any records.

          1.3.3. Tombstone photograph

               John's tombstone in the I.O.O.F. cemetery in Alexandria, Indiana has been photographed.  The tombstone lists him as "John Wright 1860-1945"3.

2. Census Records

     2.1. Federal Census Records

          2.1.1. 1930 Federal Census

               On April 15, 1930, John was enumerated as head of household in Monroe Township, Madison County, Indiana4, as John Wright, age 68, widowed, white male farmer.  He was born in Ohio and his parents were born in Ohio.  He owned his own home, owned a radio and could read and write and speak English.

     2.2. State Census Records

          The State of Indiana conducted state census in 1853, 1857, 1871, 1877, 1883, 1889, 1901, 1913, 1919 and 1931.  These, however, were merely for the purposes of determining legislative apportionment.

     2.3. Agricultural Census Records

          I have not yet investigated these types of census records to see what information might be shed on the Wright family farm.

3. Military Records

     3.1. Draft Registration

          John was too old to be included in the draft for World War I or II.  He would have been subject to draft for Spanish-American war.

     3.2. Pension Records

          Not applicable, as I have found no records to indicate that John served in the military.

     3.3. Service Records

          Not applicable, as I have found no records to indicate that John served in the military.

4. Land Records

          Madison County published a plat map in 1880, 1891, 1893, 1901, 1910, 1915, 1921, 1923, 1931, and 1940 that may be relevant to my search for John and the Wright family.

5. Supplemental Records

          Supplemental records available to research for John include county/city directories, court records and will and probate records.  Will add these to my list of "to-do" items for my next research trip in Madison County.

          In 1931, John's residence was listed as Rural Route 6 Alexandria11.

          In 1932, John's residence was listed as Wm Cochran rd12.  The same residence was given in 193413, 193514 and 193815.
