• Notes

  He and Lilly had 13 children! His baptism has his surname as Wright, and only shows his mother as a parent. Story is that his father was a Tom West, but unproven as yet. Question is, if John Edward Wright only died in 1916, per Mike Wright's albany1820.com, howcome he was not listed on the baptism, and where why and when did Thomas change his surname to West? ~~~ Marriage of a Dennis Nesbitt West - https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QS7-L93Q-RXXN ~~~ death of a Henry Nesbitt West - https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:33SQ-G5FR-HP5 ~~~ marriage of a Henry Nesbitt West: https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QSQ-G9Z5-VWXW ~~~ death of Cairncross Nesbit West: https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:S3HT-DRHQ-FYT
