George Wright and family
(Feb 04
Red)
My gt. grandfather George Wright was born to William the miller of Hastoe, Tring about 1836 - no baptism found. He married Elizabeth Bishop at New Mill Chapel, Tring in 1859. She was born in Cholesbury where her father was Innholder of the Queens Head. They had five sons and four daughters. All the sons emigrated - two to Canada and three to the USA. All the daughters remained in England but moved away from the Tring area. A family story has it that at one time George worked as a coachman for the Rothschild's at Tring Park, but I have not been able to confirm this yet. I have proved that he owned the White Lion at Aston Clinton in 1891. Any information welcome.
