RE: William Peasant Wright (M) Sofrona Boyd
Seeking info on William Pleasant "Plez" Wright who came to Texas in 1854 from Fayette County, Al.His family settlednear Onalaska in Polk County, Texas.His brothers were Jesse H., Richrad Razzy, and Thomas Poe Wright.Plez married Sofrona A. Boyed on June 17, 1869 and it appears to have been a double ceremony.Also found on file in Polk County, Texas are the marriage license of B. Z. Boyed and Cerrie Gibbs.The license were obtained the same day, the ceremony was performed the same day and signed by the same pastor, a William Deason D.D.Plez and Sofrona's original marriage certificate states they married in Liberty County, Texas.It was in my Grandmother's possesion in the 1980's, but I don't know what happened to it after her death. I believe Plez' father was Joseph Wright (B) 1816 in Ga., but I don't if that is correct.I have no info beyond Joseph.Anyone who has info on this line, please respond.
