Hello Susan,
I have had a look. Igi have no Everetts or Wrights on their christening list for that period. The 1841 census shows Maria(age 15!) and Daniel 20 ,in the employ of William and Elizabeth Dean, Farmer HO 107/335/2
There are no other Wrights in Chapel in that year( there are only 9 pages). Lots of Everetts tho',and Daniel could belong to any of them. I think your only bet is parish registers,which I understand are held in Chelmsford. Sorry, Eileen

hi eileen

i have the 1841 census but it only got daniel everitt on it with william and elizabeth dean but no maria.
i know daniel which is the one the 1841 is the right one he married maria in 1842 she must have been 16 at the time and she had two sons william born in 1844 and george born in1847. She died in 1847 8 months after george was born. or maria could have been born in 1818
is this of any help to you.

regards susan
