Biography

James was born in the Jan-Feb-Mar quarter of 1886, apparently at Sunderland, Durham, exact date unknown.

James Wright married Janet Clazie in 1904 at Bishopwearmouth, Durham. Then what? Nothing further is known about him. There were many men with the same name, no middle names! That makes identification difficult. James Wright was about the correct age to have been a soldier during World War I but there is no clear evidence.

There is a burial at Bishopwearmouth of a James Wright, born about 1884, died in 1955, who might be the same person. Identification is uncertain but the location is right.
