JOHN H. BRIGHT, farmer, sec. 26, Fork Tp., was born in Darke Co., Ohio, April 
21, 1853, and is a son of Jesse Bright, who was born in North Carolina, and 
after the death of his wife in 1859 married again and moved to Ohio, going 
thence to Indiana, and after a brief stay moved to Montcalm Co., Mich; in 1870 
he came to Mecosta County, and settled in Fork Tp., locating a farm containing 
80 acres, under the homestead act, on which he has since resided.

Mr. Bright acquired his education in the common schools and was bred to 
agricultural pursuits. He accompanied his father to Mecosta County, and is now 
resident on a farm in the same section. He was married in 1876, to Rosa M., 
daughter of William and Jane (Sidler) Creevey, born Jan. 8, 1860, in Eaton 
Co., Mich. The children of Mr. and Mrs. Bright are Eva Jane, Jessie Bell and 
John William. Mr. Bright is a Republican in political adherence, and has 
served his township in several local offices.
