| I'm researching the Wright and Hale families that first settled in the counties of Russell and Wise Virginia in the late1700's and early1800's. My father's family begins with John and Martha (McLaughlin) Wright. They're first found in the Russell Co.census about 1830. After the land that they lived on was taken to form Wise Co. in 1856 they are found in that county around Virginia City and St. Paul My mother's family, Hale, was found most often in Russell Co.around the Castlewood area. .Other surnames in my family are,Lucas, Shepherd,Silcox,Grizzle,Mays and many others. If you have information on these families please e-mail me. You will find my family trees and other information at the link below. |

| This site was made possible by the hard work of many family and friends that have shared information on these families. I have asked their permission to include on this site whatever they have shared with me. I hope you find something here that helps you in your research. Everything here is free for the taking but please let us know what you're using and ask before linking us to other sites. We have all been very careful to be as accurate as possible in our research but mistakes are sometimes made. If you find anything that needs corrected, please let me know. Our intention in researching our family, as most who are interested in this "hobby", is in rememberance of those who have passed on before us leaving behind a part of themselves that will forever be linked to future generations. |
