*Hiram E. Wright (10/8/1820-1891) was born the son of James (7/27/1766-4/6/1831) and Urania Holiday (4/14/1789-9/28/1869) Wright.

His family sites suggest his siblings were: Henry Wright (8/1/1790-12/11/1874), *Rensselaer Wright (4/19/1792-1/9/1872-), *Micaja/Macajah Wright (2/20/1794-9/1872) *William Wright (3/23/1800), Alfred Wright (6/3/1809-10/8/1888), John Hitt Wright (6/13/1811), Eliza A Wright (1809-), George Washington Wright (7/8/1818-), *Caroline Amelia Wright (10/22/1822-1903), Charles Knapp Wright (10/7/1825-5/16/1905), and Albert J Wright (1825-1896). Archives *GRAVES FOUND

He married first, (1) Esther Wright (1819-1865) (2) Alice Amanda Wright (1829-1906). Both Esther and Alice are listed on different sites as being called Fanny? I believe it was Esther that was called Fanny, as that's how it is in the census below.

In 1850 census, Hiram (age 30), Estha (Esther ?) (age 31), Elizabeth (age 3), (Albut (Albert) (age 4), and Fanny (age 1)

In the 1860 census, there is Hiram (age 40) wife Fanny (age 41 (1819) (this is Esther's Bir. Date), Elizabeth (age 13), Esther (age 11), and Albert (age 14) living in Portville, NY

In the 1870 census, in Portville NY, Hiram is listed with two young women; (Charlotte) Elizabeth age (age 22) and Fanny age (age 20). It doesn't say if they are his daughters, but they are. (Esther died in 1865)

So Hiram's children were: Elizabeth Wright (1847-), Albert Wright (1846-) and Fanny (1849-). I believe Esther Burnham Wright was the mother of all 3 children (censuses). also, all were born before Fannie died..

Than in the 1880 census, he is listed with next wife, Amanda, and his two daughter's,(from Esther) Charlotte (Elizabeth) (1847-) and Ester (Esther) (1849-) who eventually both marry Hyanthus O. Crandall, Esther first She died in 1881 and Charlotte E. married him in 1882.
