Wright, Isaac, Stark.  For six generations the Wright family have lived and 
tilled the soil in this town.  Isaac Wright's father was in the war of 1812, 
and his grandfather was in the War of the Revolution.  One brother and three 
nephews participated in the War of the Rebellion, one of the latter died in 
Andersonville, and his brother received a wound which ultimately resulted in 
his death.  Squire Wright was born in 1815 on the homestead farm.  He married 
Catie M. Deck, by whom he has had seven children, four of whom survive.  He 
owns a dairy farm of 100 acres and keeps twenty-five head of stock.  Mr. 
Wright was elected justice of the peace, which position he held sixteen 
years.  He has also served as inspector of elections, commissioner of 
highways, etc.; inspector of schools in 1838, assessor and notary public.
