Andrea Report 28 Jul 2009 13:10

Im trying to find any information about 6 brothers that all were in the WW1. One being my GG Grand father who is the only one i have info on and pictures of. I hvae one picture of there mother and the boys, all in uniform around her.

The parents were George Wright (1842) and Mary Smith (1847)
The sons were:
WILLIAM WRIGHT 1871
JOHN WRIGHT 1879
ARTHUR WRIGHT 1884
DAVID WRIGHT 1885
HARRY WRIGHT 1886
and my GG Grandad Father HERBERT HAROLD WRIGHT 1893
On the photo it also says about 4 grand sons were in the forces as well but doesnt list there names or ages.

They were all born in Framsden Suffolk but i seem to lose the older ones in 1901.
Any idea?
thanx

Many thanks Polly xx
The first post is how far i could get with the programme i have.
The second post could well be David and John and the thrid Arthur as i will explain.

I have blown up the phot as to be able to read the txt better. It reads:

Pte W Wright A.S.C served in Salonkia formerly a Navvy on the G.E.R

Gunner John Wright R.G.A stationed at Aldershot formly a fireman in the maltings at Sleford

David Wright served on HMS Essex formerly a fireman in the maltings at Barnsley

A Wright R.F.C was (cant read it) at Walberton Sussex

Gunner Harry Wright R.G.A

and finaly Herbert ( grandad) was wounded ( had his leg blown off!) May 10th 1916? was in hospial recovering At Stourbridge formerly a malter at Barnsley

Mrs Wright also has 4 grandsons serving 2 of which have been wounded in action.

So i take it that ' Profession or Occupation Maltsters Labourer " is something to do with the maltings so would be pretty sure that that is David and John.

And Arthue is very close to Framsden in 1901 ao i would think that was him.

Any idea what the bit

Infirmity
means?
Any way Many thank again. i might try there forces records.
